The risks of buying maltitol (E965) without standards
- Off-notes from impure lots
- Irregular sweetness in cold systems
- Inaccurate solids in syrups → viscosity & set problems
We qualify sources, hold tight specs on PSD and moisture, and verify assay/solids (for syrups). Each lot of bulk maltitol is QC-checked (purity, moisture/LOD, ash, heavy metals, microbiology) and released with COA/TDS. Outcome: predictable performance, cleaner processing and fewer reworks.

Client testimonials and reviews
Bara Ezquerra
We source bulk maltitol (E965) for HORECA sticks and coatings. Clean taste, stable PSD and fast dissolution keep reworks down. COA/TDS and full traceability arrive with every lot—simple audits and steady forecasts.
Cacao Delta
For bars and fillings we chose fine-mesh maltitol sweetener. It gives near-sugar bulk with mild cooling—perfect for chocolate. No recrystallization issues, and maltitol syrup solids help us hit target viscosity.
Acasyna
In jams and spreads, maltitol holds texture and sweetness over shelf life. Tight moisture and uniform particles reduce line adjustments. When we need a crisper finish, we fine-tune with maltitol xylitol blends.
Oroyes
As a distributor, maltitol bulk wholesale moves well: consistent specs, reliable lead times and competitive pricing. Our customers like the documentation and the clean sensory profile.
Frequently Asked Questions — Bulk Maltitol
What sweetness level does maltitol (E965) provide?
Maltitol delivers about 85–90% of sucrose sweetness with a clean profile and milder cooling than xylitol—useful in chocolate and coatings.
Is maltitol safe? (maltitol is it safe / maltitol safe)
Food-grade maltitol (E965) is widely used and considered safe when consumed as intended. Like other polyols, excessive intake may cause gastrointestinal discomfort; many markets require a “excess consumption may have laxative effects” statement.
What are key maltitol uses in industry?
Sugar-reduced confectionery, chocolate, bakery, fillings/spreads, ice cream/dairy, and syrups. It contributes bulk and a sugar-like mouthfeel at lower calories than sugar.
Maltitol vs xylitol (maltitol xylitol): what’s the difference?
Both are polyols. Xylitol ~100% sweetness, stronger cooling, very low GI; maltitol ~85–90% sweetness, milder cooling, moderate GI. Choice depends on target texture, sweetness, and
Does maltitol raise blood sugar?
Lower glycemic impact than sucrose, but not zero. Impact varies by dose and matrix (crystalline vs maltitol syrup). Always validate nutrition panels per local rules.
Is maltitol suitable for chocolate and coatings?
Yes. Maltitol has milder cooling vs xylitol and provides sugar-like bulk, helping achieve gloss and snap with proper tempering. Control moisture and PSD for optimal flow.
How do I choose between granular maltitol and maltitol syrup?
Granular aids dry-blend flow and texture; syrup offers fast dissolution and precise solids/viscosity for fillings and toppings. Specify % dry solids when requesting syrups.
What about heat stability and processing?
Maltitol is thermally stable in typical pasteurization/baking; melts around ~148–151 °C. Manage RH to prevent stickiness in high-humidity environments.
How should bulk maltitol be stored?
Keep sealed, cool and dry (commonly <60% RH), away from odors and off the floor on clean pallets. For syrups, protect from crystallization per supplier guidance.
What drives xylitol + maltitol blend selection?
Use maltitol for bulk and mild cooling; add xylitol to increase cooling/brightness. Ratios depend on category (e.g., chocolate vs gum) and sweetness timing targets.
