Available in convenient 1 lb pouches for home bakers and bulk 6 lb packs (6 x 1 lb) for high-volume commercial confectioners.
Why Choose LorAnn Isomalt Mix?
- Non-Crystallizing & Ultra-Clear: Stays perfectly stable without graininess or unwanted crystallization, producing brilliant, glass-like hard candies, lollipops, and isomalt gems.
- High Humidity Resistance: Absorbs less atmospheric moisture than standard sugar, dramatically extending the shelf life and structural integrity of your edible cake decorations.
- Extended Workability: Remains pliable and flexible longer when warmed, making it ideal for pulled sugar, blown sugar, cast molds, and detailed sculpting.
- Reduced-Calorie Sugar Substitute: Low-glycemic, natural beet-sugar derivative with 50% fewer calories than table sugar—perfect for crafting diabetic-friendly or low-sugar treats.
Ideal Applications
- Decorative Sugar Art: Pulling, blowing, casting, and sculpting showstopping cake toppers, sugar flowers, and competition showpieces.
- Hard Candies & Lollipops: Effortlessly melts down to pour into silicone or metal molds for custom lollipops and clear hard drops.
- Baked Goods & Garnishes: Use as a crystal-clear decorative glaze, crunch topping, or spun-sugar accent for high-end desserts.
Usage Tips & Crafting Notes
- For Sugar Crafting: Heat Isomalt crystals until completely liquid and clear. Work using heat-resistant silicone molds, sugar lamp heating, or heat-resistant gloved hands for pulling and blowing.
- For Edible Candies: Since pure Isomalt is half as sweet as sugar, consider pairing with LorAnn Super-Strength Flavors and food coloring to achieve vibrant taste and color.
