1. Purity and low sweetness: mild and pure, free from peculiar smell, with a low sweetness equivalent to 30-40% of sugar and a viscosity that cannot be substitute by non-sugar sweeteners.
2. Low tooth decay: maltose can hardly be decomposed by decay fungi to produce acid, thus preventing tooth decay.
3. Lower hydroscopicity than sucrose: when it is used in candy, it may prevent the candy absorbing moisture so that candy can be kept long; in addition, it is capable of increasing candy toughness and strength to prevent candy breaking easily, and reducing sweetness of the candy.
4. Excellent resistance to crystallization: it prevents sugar in jams, preserved fruits and jellies crystallizing and returning sand, thus prolonging their shelf life.
5. High transparency: especially, automatic production line of casting candies has superiority that is incomparable for general starch syrup.
6. High temperature resistance: though heated under high temperature for a long time, maltose will not decompose, so it is especially applicable for casting candy and food that requires high temperature sterilization.
7. Maltose and water form conjugates to enhance moisture retention and fragrance retention, and reduce water activity.
IV. Purpose
1. It may be used in jams and jellies production as sweetener, thickener and filler to control adhesive permeability and balance sweetness and color.
2. It may be used in drinks and milk drinks to provide them with better flavor and fresh taste. As sweetness of maltose increases under low temperature, its favor is better after freezing.
3. As adjuvant material of oyster sauce and soy sauce, it plays the role of sweetener, thickener and toner. When producing caramel, it may increase red indicator and color index of caramel, provide it with favorable caramel smell, and improve its quality.
4. In the industry of medicine, it may be used as sweeteners and thickeners of medicinal syrup.
5. It may be used in production of high-end soft candy and hard candy.
