Our organic high maltose rice syrup has an impressively high maltose content and is ideal for applications with special requirements in terms of stability, taste and texture. Thanks to its mild, neutral taste, the flavor profile of the end products remains unaltered. Its functional properties - such as improved browning, texture enhancement and moisture retention - make it particularly attractive for baked goods, cereals, confectionery and beverages. As a natural sugar alternative, it supports clean label concepts and contributes to targeted sugar reduction. The syrup is gluten-free, vegan, allergen-free and fructose-free. An ideal solution for high-quality foods with technological requirements.
Our Infant Safe rice syrup is produced under strictly controlled conditions especially for use in infant formula. The particularly gentle processing guarantees maximum product safety, purity and quality - free from fructose, gluten, lactose and allergens. The syrup offers a mild, natural sweetness and is ideal as a sugar alternative for sensitive target groups. Thanks to its excellent tolerability and technological properties, it is used in baby purees, follow-on milk products and dietary foods. The balanced composition with controlled dextrose equivalent ensures a balanced energy supply. Our Infant Safe rice syrup meets international standards for baby food.
Our organic low sugar rice syrup has been specially developed for applications that focus on conscious sugar reduction. It offers a mild, natural sweetness based on rice - completely fructose-free and free from gluten, lactose and allergenic ingredients. With its low glycaemic effect and clear declaration, it is ideal as a sugar alternative in health-oriented products. The syrup meets the highest standards of quality and functionality - whether as a humectant, binding agent or to improve texture. It is particularly popular in baked goods, bars, drinks and baby food. Our low sugar variant combines naturalness with technological versatility.
Rice syrup solids are made from high-quality rice syrup using a natural spray-drying process and offer a practical sugar alternative in solid form.
