Trehalose is a naturally occurring, non-reducing disaccharide that offers unique functionality as compared to other saccharides commonly used in food and beverages. Trehalose has many physical properties of note: non-participation in the Maillard reaction, high heat and acid resistance, a high glass transition temperature and low hygroscopicity with a mild sweetness. These unique properties make trehalose ideal for innovative applications in the bakery, snack, confectionary, beverage, meat and seafood, frozen food, as well as vegetable and fruit categories.
