What it is

Sorghum extract is a liquid sweetener made from the grain sorghum. The grain is milled, cooked, and then enzymes are used to break down starches into sugars, which are then concentrated into a syrup.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use sorghum extract as a natural sweetener and flavoring agent. Its mild, slightly malty flavor makes it suitable for a variety of baked goods, including breads, bars, and pastries, where it also contributes to moisture and texture.

Health notes

Sorghum extract is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is primarily a source of carbohydrates. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated sorghum and its derivatives. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical dietary intake levels.

Allergen info

Sorghum is a grain and is not one of the 9 major FDA allergens. It is naturally gluten-free.
