What is Organic Isomaltitol Powder?
Organic Isomaltitol Powder is meticulously produced from 100% pure, organically grown beet sugar. Through a two-stage enzymatic process, sucrose from the beet sugar is converted into Isomaltulose, which is then hydrogenated into Isomaltitol. This unique process results in a polyol that is a nearly equimolar mixture of two disaccharide alcohols, gluco-mannitol and gluco-sorbitol. The organic certification ensures that the beet sugar is cultivated and processed without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, GMOs, or artificial additives, aligning with strict clean-label and natural ingredient standards.
Organic Isomaltitol Powder is highly valued for its unique combination of functional benefits and sensory appeal:
- Mild, Clean Sweetness: Offers about 0.45-0.6 times the sweetness of sucrose, with no aftertaste, allowing the true flavors of your product to shine.
- Low Calorie & Low Glycemic Index: Provides approximately 2 calories per gram (compared to 4 for sugar), and has a very low glycemic index (GI of 9), making it suitable for diabetic-friendly and weight-management products.
- Excellent Digestibility & Gut Friendly: Unlike some other polyols, Isomaltitol is known for its high digestive tolerance, reducing the likelihood of gastrointestinal discomfort.
- Non-Cariogenic (Tooth-Friendly): It is not metabolized by oral bacteria, thus does not promote tooth decay.
- High Stability: Extremely stable to heat, acid, and enzymatic hydrolysis, making it ideal for a wide range of processing conditions and extending shelf life.
- Low Hygroscopicity: Absorbs very little moisture, contributing to product stability and preventing stickiness in confectionery and baked goods.
With its functional advantages, clean-label appeal, and alignment with growing health trends, our Organic Isomaltitol Powder is the ideal ingredient for manufacturers looking to enhance the nutritional profile and market appeal of their products with a pure, transparent, and superior sweetening solution.

FAQs
Q: What is the primary source of your Organic Isomaltitol Powder?
A: Our Organic Isomaltitol Powder is derived from 100% organically grown beet sugar. The sucrose from beet sugar undergoes a two-stage enzymatic and hydrogenation process to produce Isomaltitol.
Q: What is the sweetness level of Organic Isomaltitol compared to sugar?
A: Organic Isomaltitol Powder has about 45-60% of the sweetness of sucrose (table sugar). Its mild sweetness allows it to be used alone or in combination with high-intensity sweeteners to achieve desired sweetness levels without off-tastes.
Q: Is Organic Isomaltitol suitable for diabetic consumers?
A: Yes, with a very low glycemic index (GI = 9), Organic Isomaltitol Powder causes only a minimal rise in blood glucose and insulin levels, making it highly suitable for diabetic-friendly formulations and products aimed at blood sugar management.
Q: What’s the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?
A: Our Organic Isomaltitol Powder typically has a shelf life of 24-36 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dry place (below 75°F / 24°C), away from direct sunlight and moisture, in its original sealed, airtight packaging. Its low hygroscopicity contributes to its excellent stability.
Q: Does Organic Isomaltitol cause digestive discomfort like some other polyols?
