• Long-chain Inulin or TEX is a type of inulin with advanced technological properties. It is a natural powdered food ingredient made from chicory inulin with very high purity developed to improve texture and mouthfeel in various food applications. Chicory inulin is a polydisperse mixture of linear fructose polymers with mostly one terminal glucose unit, coupled by (2-1) bonds. The number of units (degree of polymerization) can vary between 2 and 60.

• Erythritol (E968) is mainly used as a sweetener: the flavor profile is very similar to sucrose, with a sweetening power of about 60-70%, making it a useful alternative to traditional sugar. Used in combination with intensive sweeteners it can increase the sweetness of ingredients, add body and mask unwanted aftertastes. Highly soluble.
