Glucose is commonly applied in baked goods, cereals, snacks, confectionery and sweetened beverages. In sport nutrition products, it is valued for its energy-inducing qualities. Glucose can also be used to balance flavours in savoury products like soups and sauces. In desserts, it can reduce ice crystal formation.
Glucose syrup is a highly refined and concentrated solution of dextrose, maltose and higher saccharides. It is obtained by acid and/or enzyme hydrolysis of starch and it is a clear colourless viscous liquid.
