Our light barley malt syrup is a natural, unrefined sweetener made from pure, sprouted, malted barley. The barley grains are dried at low temperatures and then slowly cooked into a thick syrup. Containing 65% maltose, 30% complex carbohydrates and 3% protein, it is a great natural alternative to refined white sugar in cooking and baking. Half as sweet as sugar, it is commonly used in combination with other natural sweeteners to provide a rich, robust and malty flavor to bread, cereals, sauces, and malted beverages.
