ABSTRACT:
A polydextrose composition that is substantially free of bitter tasting and color causing compounds is useful as a bulking agent in the incorporation of low calorie foods. In particular, the bulking agent may be combined with high intensity sweeteners as a replacement for sugar in foods so as to lower their calories without detracting from their texture and mouthfeel. Commercially available polydextrose that otherwise contains acidic compounds that cause bitter tastes and contribute to off colors thereby deterring its use in many food applications is purified through modified ion exchange column chromatography.
