Trehalose

Due to its low glycemic index (GI), trehalose (Trade Name: SC® F-Trehalose), also known as the "sugar of life“, is commonly used as a sweetener in low-sugar and low-calorie foods. It contributes to a smoother, chewier texture, making it ideal for products like baked goods, confectionery and other foods that require a satisfying mouthfeel. Additionally, trehalose enhances the shelf life of foods by stabilizing proteins and preserving flavor integrity.
