Bulk High Fructose Corn Syrup

Bulk High Fructose Corn Syrup for Food & Beverage Manufacturing

5.0

Bulk high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a liquid sweetener made from corn starch that has been enzymatically processed to convert glucose into fructose. It is available in different formulations, most commonly HFCS 42 and HFCS 55, each offering varying levels of sweetness and solubility depending on application needs. Known for its affordability, consistent sweetness, and clean taste, high fructose corn syrup is widely used in food and beverage manufacturing.

 

Compared to sucrose or cane sugar, HFCS offers better stability in acidic environments, higher moisture retention, and improved shelf life. Whether you’re sweetening soft drinks or baking products in large volumes, bulk HFCS is a dependable ingredient for commercial processing.

High Fructose Corn Syrup FAQ

What is the difference between HFCS 42 and HFCS 55?

HFCS 42 contains roughly 42% fructose and is commonly used in baked goods, jams, and condiments. HFCS 55 contains about 55% fructose and is sweeter, making it the go-to option for soft drinks and fruit beverages. The difference affects sweetness, solubility, and how the syrup performs in different food matrices.

HFCS 55 has a sweetness level similar to table sugar (sucrose), while HFCS 42 is slightly less sweet. Both are effective sweeteners in commercial food production and offer additional benefits like shelf life improvement and moisture control.

Store in sealed, food-grade containers at room temperature in a dry environment. Avoid extreme heat or direct sunlight. When properly stored, HFCS maintains quality for up to 12 months.
