FOSLIFE®

Prebiotic Sweet Soluble Fiber

Reduce Sugar in Confectionery

Sugar reduction in confectionery affects more than sweetness. It can also change texture, chew, mouthfeel, and moisture balance.

FOSLIFE®, a soluble prebiotic scFOS fiber, helps manufacturers reduce sugar while supporting a clean taste profile, texture, and overall eating quality. It is well suited for reduced-sugar confections where sweetness, functionality, and fiber enrichment all need to work together.

FOSLIFE® also contributes soluble prebiotic fiber and offers a low glycemic index, supporting better-for-you product positioning.

Works Great in Confectionery Applications

Sugar reduction in confectionery can affect more than sweetness. It can influence texture, mouthfeel, and overall product experience.

FOSLIFE® helps reduce sugar without compromising core properties, including mouthfeel and moisture retention.

It enhances flavor delivery, supports a smooth texture, and can provide bulking properties in products such as chocolates, gummies, and candies.

  • Provides mild sweetness with a clean taste profile
  • Helps support chewiness, softness, and mouthfeel in reduced-sugar confections
  • Contributes functional bulk in candies, gummies, and chocolate systems
  • A soluble prebiotic fiber that supports clean-label and fiber-forward formulations

Performs Well in Chocolates, Candies, and Gummies

FOSLIFE® can be seamlessly incorporated into confectionery products that typically rely heavily on sugar for bulk and mouthfeel, such as caramels, chewy candies, and chocolate coatings.

It replaces the bulk sugar imparts while enhancing the overall texture and moisture balance. It ensures that even low-sugar confections maintain their indulgent characteristics.

  • Can contribute bulk in formulations where sugar reduction affects body and texture
  • Adds mild sweetness with a clean taste and no aftertaste
  • Supports moisture balance, which may help reduce dryness throughout shelf life
  • Non-GMO soluble prebiotic fiber for cleaner ingredient statements
