What it is

Dextrose is a simple sugar, also known as glucose. It is typically derived from corn or other plant starches through a process called hydrolysis. It is a white, crystalline powder that dissolves easily in water.

Why it's used

Dextrose is added to foods as a sweetener, to improve texture, and to help with browning during cooking. It is often used in baked goods, processed meats, and confectionery products. In this case, it's used as a coating to improve the appearance or texture of the food.

Health notes

Dextrose is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. As a simple sugar, it provides calories and can affect blood sugar levels. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated dextrose and found it to have no safety concerns. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary intake.

Allergen info

Dextrose is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
