Fructose and dextrose containing liquid sweetener.

摘要

There is provided a procedure whereby a dextrose solution feed stream can be processed to yield both crystalline fructose and a fructose and dextrose containing liquid sweetener. Fructose is preferably crystallized out of solution under a controlled cooling rate which is decreased for the temperature band 46 +/- 3< DEG >C before being increased again. After separation of the crystalline fructose a liquid sweetener is produced using the mother liquor and a dextrose containing solution, advantageously a solution also derived from the original feed stream.
