Maltodextrin is a white, odorless, tasteless polysaccharide produced from partial hydrolysis of starch (typically corn, potato, rice, or wheat starch). It consists of short chains of D-glucose units and is classified by its dextrose equivalent (DE), typically ranging from 3 to 20. Maltodextrin is easily digestible, water-soluble, and has a mildly sweet to nearly neutral flavor depending on its DE value. It is widely used in food, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications as a filler, thickener, bulking agent, and carrier, owing to its excellent functionality and safety.

Bakery Salt
Bakery salt is a finely ground, food-grade salt specifically processed for use in baking and food preparation. It is characterized by its purity, consistent grain size, and minimal additives to ensure it blends evenly in doughs and batters. Bakery salt enhances flavor, improves dough texture, controls yeast fermentation, and extends the shelf life of baked goods. Due to its fine granules, it dissolves quickly and evenly, making it ideal for commercial and home baking applications.
