Frequently Asked Questions
What is the composition and sourcing of CapMoist® Sugar Free Humectant?
CapMoist® Sugar Free Humectant is a 100% natural, clean-label liquid derived from sustainable cassava root through a proprietary extraction process. It contains no added sugars and boasts 50% dietary fiber content, making it gluten-free, allergen-free, and non-GMO. This composition ensures compatibility with health-focused formulations while supporting eco-friendly sourcing practices.
How does CapMoist® Sugar Free function as a humectant in food systems?
It leverages the hygroscopic properties of cassava-derived polysaccharides to bind water molecules effectively, reducing water activity (Aw) and preventing moisture migration. This results in superior moisture retention, texture stabilization, and natural antimicrobial effects, outperforming synthetic humectants like glycerine or sorbitol in sugar-free environments.
What are the key advantages of CapMoist® Sugar Free over traditional humectants for sugar-free formulations?
Unlike sorbitol or glycerine, which may introduce unwanted sweetness or laxative effects, CapMoist® Sugar Free provides neutral flavor, high fiber enrichment (50%), and enhanced machinability without sugars. It enables clean-label declarations, reduces formulation complexity, and has been shown to extend shelf life by up to three times while cutting stale product costs by as much as 80%.
In which food applications is CapMoist® Sugar Free most effective?
It excels in sugar-free baked goods (e.g., cookies, breads), confectionery (e.g., gummies), snack bars, dairy alternatives, and frozen foods. For R&D teams, it's particularly useful in gluten-free or plant-based products, where it optimizes texture, prevents syneresis, and boosts fiber claims, with typical inclusion rates of 2-5% depending on the matrix.
What are the recommended dosage levels and formulation guidelines?
Dosage typically ranges from 1-5% w/w, based on the product's water content and desired Aw (e.g., 0.6-0.8 for intermediate-moisture foods). Formulators should incorporate it during the mixing stage for even distribution. Pilot trials are recommended to assess interactions, with our technical team providing customized support.
Where is CapMoist® Sugar Free supplied?
Nexus Ingredient supplies in bulk B2B to the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia.
How does CapMoist® Sugar Free impact the nutritional profile of end products?
With 50% dietary fiber from cassava, it enhances fiber content (e.g., qualifying for "high-fiber" claims at appropriate levels) while maintaining a low glycemic index due to its sugar-free nature. This supports formulations targeting digestive health, satiety, or diabetic-friendly labels, without altering caloric density significantly.
How compatible is CapMoist® Sugar Free with other ingredients in complex formulations?
It exhibits high compatibility with emulsifiers, stabilizers, and proteins, showing no adverse interactions in pH ranges of 3-7. In R&D trials, it enhances synergy with hydrocolloids for texture in low-sugar systems. It can replace up to 100% of synthetic humectants without reformulation issues.
