If you don't use sugar, what is used to sweeten your Chocolate?
Our Belgian Chocolate is sweetened with Maltitol. Maltitol is a plant-based, reduced calorie sweetener that has 90% the sweetness of sugar. Maltitol is a member of a family of sweeteners known as sugar alcohols or polyols. Most of the maltitol on the market today is derived from corn. The maltitol used in Amber Lyn Chocolates is derived from wheat, but it is gluten free.
