Zerose™ erythritol is a polyol available from maize or sugar base material and in several different particle sizes. Erythritol was developed to deliver optimal functionality and unique sweetness solutions. It is a low molecular weight polyol comprised of four carbon atoms, and appears as a white crystalline, odorless product which rapidly dissolves in water (up to 60 g/100 ml at 30°C) to give a brilliantly clear, low viscosity colorless solution. It has a taste and functionality similar to sucrose, zero calorie content and the highest digestive tolerance compared to other polyol sweeteners. Zerose™ erythritol is also available in a USDA organic certified version. view less
