Simpkins
have been manufacturing traditional confectionery for over 70 years.
We now specialise in the manufacture and distribution of sugar and sugar
free confectionery all over the world.
SUGAR
FREE PRODUCTS
The method of manufacture is similar to that of a sugar product, but
using the sugar free ingredients. There is also a requirement to increase
the temperature of the boiling by at least 30ºC in order to create
a product with as good a flavour and texture as that created by a sugar
boiling.
Simpkins produce a number of products using these ingredients; they
include: Sugar Free Travel Tins, Sugar Free Pops and Sugar Free Mixed
Fruit Drop Bags.
SUGAR
FREE BOILINGS
Sugar free boilings are made using substances called polyols. These
products are sugar replacers, so that the total amount of sugar in our
recipes can be substituted.
Two polyols we use are isomalt and maltitol syrup. We can use them to
create a candy that resembles a sugar boiling with added benefits. The
benefits are that the candy is suitable for diabetics, safe for teeth,
and lower in calories than sugar.
ISOMALT
A bulk sugar substitute which has been obtained from sugar beet, by
treating it with enzymes. Isomalt is safe for teeth, suitable for diabetics,
and has 50% lower calories than table sugar.
MALTITOL
SYRUP
This is produced from grain derived products which have a high content
of Maltose, e.g. maize. Maltitol is safe for teeth, lower in calories
than sugar, and is suitable for diabetics.
COLOURS
AND FLAVOURS
Simpkins uses natural colours and flavours, wherever possible in their
products.
