Rare sugar purification: tagatose
Combining unique technologies & deep expertise

Tagatose is a rare sugar that is naturally present in some fruits and grains.

It offers many benefits as a white sugar substitute:
- no-aftertaste flavor profile
- a negligible glycemic index
- 60% fewer calories than sucrose while keeping many of the essential functionalities of sugar.

It is a unique sucrose alternative, contributing to a healthier lifestyle.

Bonumose succeeded in producing tagatose using a plant based-starch and applying brand new enzymatic process.

Achieved major key proof points for low cost, efficient production levels.

Partnering together with Bonumose, Applexion teams have worked to establish a suitable and sustainable rare sugar purification process.
