Calcium Saccharin
Calcium Saccharin is the calcium salt form of saccharin, a synthetic sweetener. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder with a sweet taste that is several hundred times sweeter than sucrose (table sugar). Calcium Saccharin is water-soluble and widely used as a non-nutritive sweetener in food and beverage products, pharmaceuticals, and oral care formulations. Due to its stability under heat and acidic conditions, it is ideal for baked goods and beverages. It serves as a sugar substitute for diabetic and calorie-restricted diets and is often used in combination with other sweeteners to improve taste profiles.
Caramel Powder Flavor
Caramel Powder Flavor is a highly concentrated powdered flavoring agent designed to impart the rich, sweet, and buttery aroma and taste of caramel to a wide range of products. Produced through controlled caramelization of sugars and natural extracts, this flavor powder delivers authentic caramel notes without artificial additives. Its fine powder form ensures easy blending, precise dosing, and extended shelf life. Commonly used in food and beverage manufacturing, it enhances sensory appeal in bakery products, confectionery, dairy items, and beverages. Its versatility also makes it suitable for flavoring applications in personal care and cleaning products.
Glycerin
Glycerin, also known as glycerol, is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid with a sweet taste and hygroscopic properties. It is a trihydroxy alcohol (triol) used extensively across food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications. Food-grade glycerin is produced through hydrolysis, saponification, or transesterification of fats and oils, ensuring compliance with stringent purity standards. It is supplied in bulk (e.g., 250kg drums) for large-scale applications where non-toxic, biodegradable humectants or solvents are required. Glycerin is widely appreciated for its moisture-retaining ability, solubility, lubricity, and stabilizing properties.
Hydrogen Peroxide Food Grade
Hydrogen Peroxide Food Grade is a highly concentrated aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), formulated specifically for use in food processing and related applications. It appears as a clear, colorless liquid with a slightly sharp, acrid odor. Renowned for its powerful oxidizing and bleaching properties, hydrogen peroxide is a strong antimicrobial agent and environmentally friendly disinfectant that decomposes into water and oxygen, leaving no harmful residues. The food-grade designation ensures compliance with strict purity standards, making it suitable for direct and indirect food contact uses, including sterilization, sanitation, and preservation.
Icing Sugar
Icing Sugar, also known as powdered sugar or confectioners’ sugar, is a finely ground sugar with a powdery consistency. It is typically made by milling granulated sugar into a fine powder and blending it with a small amount of anti-caking agent (usually cornstarch or tricalcium phosphate) to prevent clumping. Icing Sugar is white, odorless, and has a sweet taste. It is widely used in baking, confectionery, and culinary applications to provide sweetness, texture, and decorative finishes.
Prunes
Prunes are dried plums that serve as a natural source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants. They are widely used in food products and snacks to provide natural sweetness, improve digestive health, and enhance nutritional value. Supplied in bulk 5 kg packaging, prunes are ideal for commercial and industrial food applications.
Sodium Cyclamate
Sodium Cyclamate 80 Mesh is a white, crystalline powder used as an artificial sweetener. It is approximately 30 to 50 times sweeter than sucrose (table sugar) and provides a low-calorie sugar substitute. Due to its high sweetness and stability under heat and acidic conditions, it is commonly used in food and beverage formulations, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products as a sugar alternative.
Sucralose
Sucralose is a high-intensity, zero-calorie artificial sweetener derived from sucrose through selective chlorination. It is approximately 600 times sweeter than sugar, making it an effective sugar substitute in a wide range of food and beverage applications.
