Saporepuro's 38-39DE glucose syrup powder is a versatile, high-quality sweetener derived from France and packaged in Italy. Its powder consistency makes it ideal for a wide range of culinary applications.
It can be used to sweeten and improve texture in a wide range of recipes. It adds a natural sweetness to desserts, such as homemade candies, ice cream, or custards. It is also a key component in making fondant, jams, and chocolates, imparting a smooth and silky texture.
It has the main function of binding and giving stability to foods; it is able to adjust taste and flavor to the preparations in which it is present, without ever being too sweet to the palate, as well as the ability to be used and dosed easily even by those who are not professional chefs or pastry chefs. Compared to sucrose, glucose has 30 percent less sweetening power and is clearly less sweet than fructose, the sweetest naturally occurring sugar contained in and extracted from fruits and honey. It is sufficient to combine three parts water to seven parts glucose powder, just as by combining 20% water to the desired amount of glucose powder, glucose syrup can be obtained.
