High fructose corn syrup is a substitute for sugar.

High fructose corn syrup is starch sugar crystal made from plant starch by hydrolysis and isomerization, and it is an important sweetener. The production of high fructose corn syrup is not limited by region and season, with relatively simple equipment and low investment cost. Because its components are mainly fructose and glucose; Therefore, it is called "high fructose syrup".

brief introduction

High fructose corn syrup is hydrolyzed from corn starch and belongs to starch sugar. At present, when the price of corn is relatively stable, the production cost will not increase, so the market price is stable.

Starch sugar industry conforms to the agricultural industrialization policy. Under the influence of the national policy of "agriculture, countryside and farmers", with the continuous improvement of production technology and the continuous expansion of starch sugar industry, the production cost will be rapidly reduced, and with the continuous improvement of the application technology of high fructose corn syrup in food.

Its cost performance with sucrose will be more prominent, more and more people will know about high fructose corn syrup, and more and more food enterprises will choose it. Therefore, it is inevitable that high fructose corn syrup will mostly replace sucrose in food industry.
