Isomalt is a sugar substitute derived from beet sugar that resists absorbing moisture. It remains clear and stable when melted, so it is used for transparent sugar decorations and sugar art. It crystallizes less readily and browns more slowly than traditional caramel.

Where It’s Used

“Melt the isomalt and pour it into a silicone mold to make clear decorative plaques.”
