Sugar alcohols are effective emulsifiers and foaming agents for cakes and creams. The oil and water-based emulsified margarine produced by using the emulsification stability of sugar alcohols is not only of high quality, but also can make the food have the characteristics of oily texture and smooth structure when used in food production. Therefore, using maltitol as a fat substitute to produce low-calorie foods can maintain the flavor and texture of the original fat food.
