Pure Dextrose Powder – Vegan, Gluten-Free, OU Kosher | Modernist Pantry 1kg

Pure Dextrose Powder from Modernist Pantry

Discover a clean, versatile form of glucose designed for bakers, ice cream makers, and home chefs. Our Pure Dextrose Powder is derived from corn, not grapes, providing a neutral profile that blends into a wide range of desserts and confections. This vegan, gluten-free formula is OU Kosher Pareve certified, giving you confidence in both sourcing and quality.

Key attributes help you control texture and sweetness without overpowering flavors. Dextrose is roughly 70% as sweet as table sugar, allowing you to fine-tune sweetness. Its hygroscopic nature attracts moisture, influencing mouthfeel and stability in various preparations. In frozen desserts, dextrose helps inhibit large ice crystal formation, yielding smoother scoops and a satisfying bite. In rolled fondant, it can lend flexibility for smoother sheets and cleaner finishes. The product comes in a practical 1 kg (2.2 lb / 36 oz) package, ideal for home kitchens and small-batch production.
