Description
Erythritol belongs to a class of compounds called sugar alcohols. Most of them function as low calorie sweeteners in sugar-free or low sugar products.
Erythritol appears to be quite different from the other sugar alcohols. It contains many fewer calories:
- Table sugar: 4 calories per gram
- Xylitol: 2.4 calories per gram
- Erythritol: 0.24 calories per gram
In large-scale production, erythritol is created when a type of yeast ferments glucose from corn or wheat starch. The final product looks like powdery white crystals.
