Dextrose Powder 3.5 oz.

Description

Elyasan Dextrose 100g is a natural sweetener ideal for pastry, bread, and ice cream making.

It is used to improve the texture and sweetness of your preparations, adding smoothness to creams, doughs, and fillings. It is perfect for creating high-quality products and giving them a professional touch. In pastry making, dextrose is mainly used to control crystallization, improve texture, and retain moisture. Its sweetening power is lower than that of regular sugar, allowing you to sweeten without making the product overly sweet. It is used in ice cream and sorbet to prevent ice crystals, in baked goods such as cakes to maintain softness, and in coatings and glazes to obtain a silkier texture.
