INGREDIENTS - Corn Syrup



Corn syrup is a liquid sweetener consisting of water, a vegetable gum called dextrin, and various sugars, primarily dextrose (also called glucose). Corn syrup is made by converting cornstarch into simpler compounds through the use of enzymes. Corn syrup aids in retaining moisture and is used in some icings and candies. It has a mild flavor and is not as sweet as granulated sugar (sucrose).
