Caramel Color: For Consistent, Quality Appearance in Your Products
What is Caramel Color? Caramel color is a widely utilized food coloring that imparts a spectrum of brown shades to numerous food and beverage products. It is produced through the carefully controlled heat treatment of food-grade carbohydrates, such as sucrose, glucose, or fructose. This thermal process, akin to the familiar caramelization of sugar, results in the formation of complex pigments responsible for the characteristic brown hue. Its widespread adoption can be attributed to its derivation from natural sources, a well-established safety profile, and its versatility across a diverse range of applications. Characteristics of Caramel Color Rich and Diverse Color Range One of the most distinctive features of caramel color is […]
Food-Grade Lactic Acid Liquid: A Natural, Safe, and Multifunctional Modern Food Innovator
Lactic acid, one of humanity’s earliest utilized natural organic acids, is produced through the fermentation of sugars (e.g., corn, sugarcane) by lactic acid bacteria. The percentage of lactic acid varies for each type of lactic acid, ranging from 50% to 92%.Food-grade lactic acid liquid undergoes rigorous purification to remove non-functional impurities, complying with international food additive standards. Food-grade lactic acid liquid, a natural fermentation-derived food additive, has quietly become an “invisible guardian” in both the food industry and home kitchens, thanks to its mild properties and versatility. From extending shelf life to improving texture, from nutritional fortification to sustainable production, it is redefining the balance between health and flavor. Four […]

健康的な砂糖の摂り方：スクラロースの利点を探る
Raw materials for sucralose production： Sucralose is an artificial sweetener derived from natural sucrose. Sucralose is formed by chlorination modification of the sucrose molecule, replacing the three hydroxyl groups in the molecular structure with chlorine atoms. This structural modification gives it a high degree of stability and a sweetness that far exceeds that of sucrose, while at the same time not being metabolized by the human body, thus realizing its “zero-calorie” properties. This process not only retains the natural sweetness of sucrose, but also avoids calorie intake, which is the core reason why it has become a healthy sugar substitute. Wide range of applications of sucralose： Due to its excellent […]
