This premium quality, speciality carbohydrate offers a wide range
of physiological and functional benefits at only one calorie a gram.
Low calorie products, in particular, gain from the ability of Litesse® to
mimic sugar and in some cases fat, superbly recreating the creamy, full-bodied
sensory experience associated with fat and sugar.
Application areas
The Litesse® range has demonstrated its versatility as both sugar and partial
fat replacers in many foods including baked goods, beverages, confectionery and
frozen dairy desserts.
Calorie reduction occurs because Litesse® has an energy value of 1kcal/g compared
with fat at 9 kcal/g and sugar at 4kcal/g. It is also a functional ingredient
that can play a variety of roles in formulations.
Not sweet in itself but ideal for use in combination with intense sweeteners,
Litesse® has a superior clean taste which means it can be used in high proportions
for up to 50% calorie reduction, even in products with sensitive flavour systems.
Litesse® is prebiotic, non-glycaemic and widely recognised as a source of
dietary fibre suitable for enriching numerous applications, including beverages.
Litesse® can be used in many application areas to improve the nutritional
profile of products including:
Product range
Polydextrose and the Litesse® range have been developed through technological advances to meet a wide range of application needs. Litesse® is unique in its ability to vary from bland, neutral powder through to a colourless, mildly sweet liquid. Litesse® II and Litesse® Ultra™ are further refinements. Product choice depends on the final application.
