What is Glucose Syrup?
- Glucose Syrupis a complex syrup consisting primarily of glucose, presenting as a viscous liquid.
- Glucose Syrupis chemically stable, readily soluble in water, pure, and non-irritating.Its functionality is relatively extensive, yet its cost is relatively low.
- Our Glucose Syrupis a mixed syrup containing glucose, produced from starch or starchy raw materials through hydrolysis and refining processes utilizing enzymatic, acid, or combined acid-enzymatic methods.
- Glucose Syruppossesses characteristics such as sweetness, bulking properties, viscoelasticity, thickening ability, crystallization inhibition, moisture retention, fermentability, browning potential, and osmotic properties.

The Impact of Glucose Syrup DE Value on Your Products
Low DE / Medium DE / High DE Glucose Syrups: A Comprehensive Comparison of Functions and Applications
- Low DE Value: It has low sweetness but high viscosity, and rarely participates in fermentation; it is frequently used as a filler or thickening agent.Makes your product finer, more stable, and less prone to spoilage.
- Medium DE: The sweetness and other characteristics (viscosity, hygroscopicity, resistance to crystallization, etc.) are just right. Suitable for the processing of a wide variety of conventional food products.
- High DE Value: The sweetest type; it possesses strong hygroscopicity and effectively inhibits crystallization, and is commonly used in candies and desserts.
The price of food-grade Glucose Syrup fluctuates based on its DE value; Glucose Syrups with different DE values command different prices. Contact me now, and I will provide you with a corresponding product quotation within 24 hours.

Yes. Corn Syrup is also known as Glucose Syrup, because it is produced by hydrolyzing corn starch into glucose.
In other words, all corn syrups are Glucose Syrups, but Glucose Syrups can be produced using a variety of starches as raw materials.
Glucose Syrup is produced using starch as a raw material. Common production inputs typically consist of starch-rich agricultural crops—such as corn, wheat, rice, potatoes, and cassava—or, alternatively, specific starches such as corn starch, wheat starch, or potato starch may be used directly.
It is related to the degree of starch hydrolysis (DE value): when the DE＜ 20, it is referred to as Maltodextrin; when the DE ≥20, it is referred to as Glucose Syrup. Different DE values directly influences the functional positioning of Glucose Syrup in food products.
High-fructose corn syrup is a sweetener made from corn starch.
It is produced by hydrolyzing corn starch into Glucose Syrup and subsequently converting a portion of the glucose into fructose, thereby yielding a mixed syrup of fructose and glucose. It is a high-intensity sweetener that as a substitute for sucrose.
Examples include honey, maple syrup, and agave syrup. However, Glucose Syrup is lower in cost and broader sources for production raw materials.
