Dextrose is a type of simple sugar made from corn. It is similar to fructose and chemically identical to glucose (aka blood sugar). Dextrose can be added to cooking and baking, as well as being used as an artificial sweetener in drinks and fructose corn syrup. Dextrose can also be used to extend shelf life. Check out our dextrose, available in bulk or wholesale.

 

Besides for being used in baked goods and corn syrups, dextrose is also used intravenously to increase one's blood sugar for those who have too low blood sugar, such as diabetics and those with hypoglycemia. Dextrose is great for baking, adding to tea and coffee, and syrups. Our selection of dextrose is available in bulk or wholesale and perfect for catering, restaurants, and home use.
