Description

Xylitol is an organic chemical compound that is a reduced xylose derivative. The product has a sweet taste and is therefore used as a healthy sugar substitute. It occurs naturally in some fruits such as plums, strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. It is usually industrially extracted – either by reducing xylose or obtained with the yeast Candida guilliermondii. Xylitol is also called birch sugar because historically it was extracted from birch trees.

Technical aspects

Xylitol (E967) is a white crystalline powder that is practically odorless. It is very soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol. Xylitol has a low glycemic index and is lower in calories than sugar, so it can be used in the manufacture of diabetic and low-calorie foods. Although it has a sweet taste, it has anti-corrosive properties. When ingested, it causes a cooling effect in the mouth, which is used in making chewing gum, mouthwashes and mints. When added to jellies or jams, Xylitol reduces the gelling power of gelling agents. It is also heat resistant, does not lose its properties during heat treatment and does not caramelize.

Storage

The shelf life of Xylitol is two years.
