Fructose – Natural Sweetener for Brewing, Hydration, and Food Applications

Fructose is a highly soluble, naturally occurring sugar valued for its clean, pleasant sweetness and versatility across many uses. It’s produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of corn starch, followed by fructose enrichment, crystallization, and drying. The result is a pure, white, free-flowing nutritive sweetener that enhances natural and healthy sweetness in food, beverages, and fermentation.

Our crystalline fructose is non-GMO, allergen-free, and gluten-free, offering a clean label ingredient you can trust. With its low glycaemic index (GI), it provides a slow-release energy source, making it an excellent option for sports nutrition, hydration mixes, and energy gels. It also combines well with high-intensity sweeteners, helping balance flavour and improve texture in recipes and drink formulations.

In brewing, fructose is 100% fermentable, making it ideal for increasing alcohol content in cider, wine, or mead without adding body or residual sweetness. It dissolves instantly in warm or cold liquids, so it’s easy to use whether you’re priming bottles, blending musts, or creating your own hard seltzer base.

For athletes, homebrewers, and DIY hydration enthusiasts, fructose offers precision and flexibility. A popular electrolyte drink formula combines fructose and dextrose in a 1:1 ratio, balanced with electrolytes like sodium citrate and flavour acids such as citric, malic, or tartaric acid. Mixing your own drinks is a cost-effective and customizable way to fine-tune sweetness, flavour, and energy release to your specific needs.
