Product description
Trehalose belongs to the natural functional sweeteners category. It is a sweet, white crystalline powder. It is a non-reducing disaccharide, consisting of two glucose molecules. Trehalose has a clean taste profile, with no aftertaste and dissolves well. It is stable under high temperatures and is not sensitive to maillard browning. Furthermore it has a good crystallinity under acidity conditions or when it coexists with other saccharides. Since trehalose is a sugar, it is used as a sweetener in products such as chewing gum. It also has a very important property that helps it to stabilize proteins and can thus be used as a biological preservative.
