Naturally sweet, SweetPearl provides the foundation for product innovation, improves nutritional value and intensifies flavour, all without any major change in recipe or manufacturing process.
03/02/09 Roquette is using a new marketing concept for its maltitol ingredient called SweetPearl. According to the company, today’s consumers demand not only high levels of quality and eating pleasure from their food – they also expect it to safeguard their health.

Naturally sweet, SweetPearl provides the foundation for product innovation, improves nutritional value and intensifies flavour, all without any major change in recipe or manufacturing process.
SweetPearl is dedicated to food applications, whatever the specification:
Chocolate creation: Adding innovation

“We find inspiration all around us, in a discussion, in a shop window, on visiting a museum… you have to open up to the world. I never stop expressing the profound longing to please others through my creations, just the desire to create emotions and the generosity of giving enjoyment. In order to succeed in this and aspire to perfection, you need to have the best products on the market: with maturity and experience, I have been able to develop my palate and recognise excellence – this is when I discovered SweetPearl.
