Wholesale Natural Liquid Glucose Syrup
Our natural liquid glucose syrup is a versatile sweetener and humectant produced via enzymatic hydrolysis of food-grade starch. It blends smoothly, improves body and sheen, and helps manage moisture and crystallization—delivering dependable functionality across industrial food applications.
Why Choose Liquid Glucose Syrup?
- Moisture Management (Humectancy): Helps keep baked goods soft and reduces staling.
- Crystallization Control: Interferes with sucrose crystals to maintain smooth textures in candies, fondants, and syrups.
- Texture & Viscosity: Adds body and mouthfeel to sauces, fillings, beverages, and dairy.
- Milder Sweetness: ~30–50% of sucrose sweetness for balanced flavor or sugar-reduced formulas.
- Freezing Point Depression: Produces creamy, less icy frozen desserts.
- Shelf Life Support: Helps prevent drying, fat/sugar bloom, and quality loss over time.
How It’s Made
Edible starch is liquefied and hydrolyzed with food enzymes (e.g., amylase, glucoamylase, pullulanase). The syrup is then filtered, decolorized, and concentrated to targeted specifications—yielding consistent, high-clarity glucose syrups ready for food production.
Grades (DE) & Typical Use
- 42 DE: Humectant with mild sweetness—great for bakery, cereals, and fruit preps.
- 63 DE: Balanced sweetness/viscosity for confections, beverages, sauces.
- 90–96 DE: Higher sweetness for jams, jellies, candy, and premium desserts.

FAQs
What is it made from? Food-grade starch (corn, wheat, tapioca, or potato) processed with enzymes.
How does it differ from HFCS? Liquid glucose is primarily glucose; HFCS contains significant fructose and is sweeter.
Typical use levels? Generally 2–20% depending on product; see table above.
Is it natural? Yes—produced from edible starch using food enzymes; no artificial sweeteners.
Calories vs. sugar? Similar (~4 kcal/g), but supports reduced-sucrose formulations and functionality.
