Crystalline fructose, as a new type of sugar source, is currently the sweetest natural healthy sweetener. It has good processing performance and special metabolic characteristics, and will not cause rapid fluctuations in blood sugar. In recent years, Crystalline fructose has been used in many countries to make healthy food with low energy, nutritional products, food for infants and young children, including healthy food for special groups. It is predicted that Crystalline fructose, as a new type of healthy sugar source, will become a new type of sugar source in the century, and can completely replace the current edible sugars - sucrose and glucose.

Crystalline fructose is more soluble in water than sucrose and glucose. It is suitable for addition in various foods, such as beverages and fermented foods, and the viscosity of the aqueous solution is relatively low, which is convenient for processing, storage and transportation.
Crystalline fructose has a strong ability to lower the freezing point, can inhibit the formation of ice crystals in cold food products, and improve the shelf life of cold food products.
Crystalline fructose has strong moisture absorption and water retention in the case of high relative humidity, and can be used as a water absorbent; after absorbing 6.0-12.0% moisture, Crystalline fructose neither absorbs moisture nor releases moisture , can effectively prevent food dehydration, avoid starch aging.
