What is Organic Dextrose Powder?
Organic Dextrose Powder, also known as organic glucose powder, grape sugar, or corn sugar, is a naturally occurring simple sugar produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of organic starch. It offers a clean, mildly sweet taste and is widely used in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and nutrition industries.
We supply two specifications:
- Organic Dextrose Monohydrate Powder (contains one molecule of water of crystallization, stable and widely used)
- Organic Dextrose Anhydrous Powder (water-free form, higher purity, fast absorption)
Both forms are non-GMO, allergen-free, and certified organic, making them suitable for clean-label formulations.

FAQs
Q: What is the primary source of your Organic Dextrose Powder?
A: Our Organic Dextrose Powder in both Monohydrate and Anhydrous forms is derived from 100% organically grown corn starch through a natural enzymatic conversion process.
Q: What is the main difference between Organic Dextrose Monohydrate and Organic Dextrose Anhydrous?
A: The key difference is their water content and how they’re processed. Organic Dextrose Monohydrate contains about 8-9.5% bound water, giving it excellent flow and a slightly less concentrated sweetness by weight. It’s processed under specific conditions to form this crystalline structure. Organic Dextrose Anhydrous is virtually water-free (less than 0.5% moisture), resulting in a purer, more concentrated form of glucose by weight. It undergoes further drying steps to remove moisture.
Q: What is the sweetness level of Organic Dextrose compared to regular table sugar (sucrose)?
A: Both forms of Organic Dextrose Powder have about 70-75% of the sweetness of sucrose. They offer a clean, mild sweetness that doesn’t overpower other flavors in your product.
Q: Is Organic Dextrose suitable for diabetic consumers?
A: Organic Dextrose has a high glycemic index (GI = 100), identical to pure glucose. This means it causes a rapid rise in blood glucose levels. While it’s excellent for quick energy needs (like in sports nutrition), it’s generally not recommended for diabetic consumers or those managing blood sugar, unless specifically used under medical guidance for hypoglycemia.
Q: What’s the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?
A: Both our Organic Dextrose Monohydrate and Organic Dextrose Anhydrous typically have a shelf life of 24 months from the manufacturing date. For optimal quality, they should be stored in a cool, dry place (below 75°F / 24°C), away from direct sunlight and moisture, in their original sealed, airtight packaging. Proper sealing is essential to prevent caking and maintain product integrity.
Q: Is your Organic Dextrose Powder gluten-free?
A: Yes, despite being derived from corn, both forms of our Organic Dextrose Powder are gluten-free. The manufacturing process thoroughly purifies the product, removing any gluten-containing proteins, making it safe for use in gluten-free formulations.
Q: Can these powders be used in beverages?
A: Absolutely! Both forms of Organic Dextrose Powder are highly soluble in water, making them ideal for a wide range of beverage applications, including functional drinks, powdered mixes, and juice blends, where they provide quick energy and clean sweetness.
