About Product
Xylitol is a plant-derived sweetener classified as a sugar alcohol, commonly sourced from birch trees, corn, and other hardwoods. With about 70% of the sweetness of table sugar, it offers a similar flavor profile while providing fewer calories. Its clean, sweet taste makes it a popular substitute in beverages, cereals, and desserts.
Shelf-stable and heat-tolerant, xylitol is also suitable for baking and cooking. It can be used in cookies, cakes, sauces, or smoothies as a sugar replacement, making it a versatile option for adding sweetness to recipes without relying on traditional sugar.
Our Xylitol is produced in a GMP / ISO9001-certified facility and meets the standards of purity set by US Pharmacopoeia. Each batch undergoes extensive testing for purity and safety.
Suggested Use: Use as a tabletop sugar replacement. Add as desired to recipes, drinks, or baked goods.Ingredients: Non-GMO Xylitol.

Xylitol is comparable to sucrose in sweetness and has been shown to be noncariogenic, possibly anticariogenic."
