Dextrose powder is an essential ingredient in pastry, ice cream and confectionery. Presented in the form of a fine white powder, this simple sugar derived from corn offers a mild flavor, excellent technical power and great versatility. Thanks to its ability to partially replace caster sugar in many recipes, it appeals to both professionals and discerning individuals looking for finesse and consistency in their sweet creations. Dextrose is a monosaccharide, or simple sugar, also known as glucose. It is obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of corn starch, then processed into a fine powder for easy use in cooking and baking. Its particularity lies in its moderate sweetening power (around 70% of that of sucrose), which makes it possible to control its sweetness while benefiting from its remarkable functional properties. This white powder, neutral in taste and perfectly soluble, is ideal for recipes requiring good moisture management, homogeneous cooking and harmonious flavor development. One of the great advantages of dextrose is its ability to replace part of the conventional sugar (sucrose) in many recipes, in proportions generally ranging from 10% to 25%. This replacement brings several benefits: Better hydration of doughs: as dextrose is hygroscopic, it attracts and retains water, guaranteeing a soft, stable texture. Improved coloring: during cooking, it promotes the Maillard reaction, resulting in an attractive golden color without excessive caramelization. Optimized leavened dough: metabolized more quickly by yeast than conventional sugar, it accelerates fermentation in brioches, sweet breads, doughnuts, etc. Stabilization of creams and mousses: its perfect solubility ensures a smooth texture, without crystallization. Flavor carrier: in pastry and confectionery, it is often used as a base to dilute flavoring powders, dry extracts or acids. Dextrose is widely used in professional kitchens, particularly in the following areas: Ice cream and sorbets: lowers the freezing point, preventing the formation of ice crystals, while stabilizing the texture. Patisserie and viennoiserie: it adds fondant to sponge cakes, madeleines, brioches, cakes or entremets. Confectionery: in candies, fruit jellies and nougats, it regulates humidity and prolongs shelf life. Molecular cuisine: it is used as a vector in certain technical preparations such as aromatic powders, sugar pearls or spherifications. Dietary preparations: because of its different glycemic index and composition, it is used in certain recipes to control sugar levels or adjust energy intake. Packaged in 600 g resealable tins, this format is equally suited to catering professionals and discerning amateurs. The fine powder is easily measured out on a scale, blends evenly with the other ingredients, and keeps unaltered in a dry place away from light.
