Malt Syrup

Malt Syrup

Everyday

Malt syrup is a thick, viscous sweetener produced by enzymatically converting the starches in malted grains—typically barley—into fermentable sugars. Characterized by its deep amber color and malty, caramel-like flavor, it contains predominantly maltose rather than sucrose, resulting in 30-40% less sweetness than refined sugar. This traditional ingredient is prized in bread baking for enhancing crust browning and in brewing for fermentation, though its gluten content from barley makes it unsuitable for gluten-free diets.
