SOFT COOKIES & BROWNIES
ACHIEVE SUPERIOR SOFTNESS & EXTENDED FRESHNESS WITH NESUGAR CANE SYRUPS
Enhance the texture and shelf life of cookies and brownies by replacing just 10–15% of granulated sugar with Nesugar Cane Syrups.
Thanks to its hygroscopic and anti-crystallization properties, Nesugar improves moisture retention, resulting in softer, chewier baked goods that stay fresh longer.
BOOST YOUR RECIPE WITH FUNCTIONAL INGREDIENTS
Enhance your baked treats with VITA-FOS prebiotic soluble fiber and other functional ingredients that support gut health and clean-label formulation. This approach meets growing consumer demand for foods that deliver digestive wellness without compromising taste or texture.
GENERAL RECIPE RECOMMENDATIONS
- Water Adjustment: Replace sucrose and dextrose entirely with Nesugar on a 1:1 basis.Nesugar contains 25% water. When substituting for granulated sugar, adjust your recipe by reducing the liquid or fat accordingly.
- Fat-Only Recipes: For recipes using only fat (oil, butter, or margarine), gradually reduce the fat by up to 25% of the original amount. If possible, add fat cold.
- Recipes with Liquid and Fat: When both liquid (water, milk, juices, yogurt, etc.) and fat are present, gradually reduce the liquid (up to 25% of the original recipe) while keeping the fat constant or slightly reducing it. Always add fat cold when possible.
- Crunchy Cookies: For cookies that need a crunchy texture, consider a 50-50 substitution of sucrose with Nesugar. Even partial replacement enhances browning, crunchiness, and overall shelf life.
KEY BENEFITS
Nesugar promotes superior fermentation, leading to shorter baking times and/or lower baking temperatures. Its intense sweetness lets you use less sweetener overall, reducing costs and simplifying production by eliminating in-house invert sugar processing.
The hygroscopic properties of Nesugar maintain moisture and texture. Although it has low water activity, it increases osmotic pressure more effectively than sucrose, which helps inhibit microbial growth and extends shelf life.
By facilitating the Maillard reaction, the reducing sugars (glucose and fructose) in Nesugar enhance caramelization, leading to improved browning, richer flavor, and a more appealing appearance.
Enrich your recipes with VITA-FOS, a high-quality prebiotic soluble fiber that offers the same functional benefits as sugar while supporting gastrointestinal health—a key trend in today’s functional foods market.
Nesugar provides a clean label alternative to traditional corn and glucose syrups (like HFCS). Made from pure, all-natural cane sugar, it is non-GMO, naturally gluten-free, OU Kosher certified, and available as certified Organic. Nesugar Light and VITA-FOS help reduce added sugars while supporting transparent ingredient lists.
