Glucose Powder is a very versatile ingredient.
Used as a sweetener it will improve the flavour, texture and stability of many foods. It will also improve the shelf life of baked goods.
It has a moderate sweet taste (70% as sweet as sugar) and can be used in a variety of baking products including cakes, desserts, confectionery, preserves and jam making.
- Used in jams and fruit preparations, it will improve the taste of the fruit and its stability.
- Used in ice cream, it will prevent the formation of crystals (it has a lower freezing point than sugar) and it will ensure a glossy, smooth consistency.
- Add to icing to ensure a glossy, smooth consistency. It will mix easily with various food ingredients and can be diluted by mixing in water.
- If you are replacing glucose syrup for glucose powder, use 75g of glucose powder instead of 100g of glucose syrup.
How to use: As required. If using in conjunction with sugar, add the powder at the same time as you add the sugar in accordance with your recipe.

Also known as nib sugar and hail sugar, pearl sugar is coarse, white, and used extensively in baking. The grains do not melt in oven and stay white throughout baking process. They provide a beautiful crunch when incorporated in waffles or used on profiteroles. Calibre: 6 Grain size: 3-4 mm.
Trimoline is an invert sugar syrup, partially crystallized and obtained by total hydrolysis of sucrose. Properties: Anti-caking, higher sweetness, improved conservation, reinforcement of the colouring of the baked products, lowering of freezing point. Used by bakers and chocolate makers to help improve the moisture retention of baked goods and chocolates, as well as increase the shelf life of the finished products. Trimoline can also be used in sorbet recipes as it prevents the formation of crystals during churning and storage. It is bake stable and freeze stable.
Xanthan is a thickener produced by the fermentation of beet sugar or glucose syrup derived from starch. This gum has a very high thickening power at low doses, which gives it properties, making it possible to maintain particles in suspension in a liquid. Xanthan is a highly flexible thickener that allows you to work in low doses in sweet, salty, emulsified, acidic or alcoholic environments. Properties: thickener, stabilizer. Recommended dosage: 1 - 4%. Recommended use: dissolve Xanthan in cold water with a whisk or mixer. At medium to high dosages, the viscosity of the Xanthan preparation becomes so high that the air bubbles incorporated during application are trapped. It is then possible to use a cooker or vacuum sealer to make them escape. Typical applications include thickening a sauce/coulis/cream, thickening a dressing to keep herbs in suspension, reducing the fat content of semi-liquid preparations while maintaining a smooth and creamy texture. Other applications may consist of thickening a preparation to be spherified with alginate, thickening a baking dough preparation to facilitate plate or mould dressing and improving softness after baking. Comment/Limitations: this material is highly resistant to freezing/thawing. It also has optimal thermo-reversibility.
