Isomalt is produced by the isomerisation and catalytic hydrogenation of sucrose, with subsequent solidification and milling. Thanks to its low hygroscopicity, moderate relative sweetness and non-cariogenicity, it is the product of choice for the preparation of non-sticky and transparent hard boiled candies. Cargill also offers an optimized grade of isomalt showing interesting possibilities in granulation and tabletting formulations.
