With a low glycemic index, maple syrup provides a slower and more sustained release of sugar into the bloodstream
Foodsterr, a local brand, importer and distributor of superfoods in Singapore, has unveiled its latest addition to its product lineup – Dark Robust Maple Syrup from Canada. Like whisky, maple syrup sourced from different locations boasts its own unique character. After sampling the various flavour profiles, Foodsterr has found the best match for local tastebuds.
With a low glycemic index of around 54, maple syrup provides a slower and more sustained release of sugar into the bloodstream compared to traditional sugar and high-fructose corn syrup to avoid spikes in blood sugar levels. As we savour it in desserts, marinades and beverages, maple syrup also provides a boost of essential minerals, including potassium, calcium, and manganese.
Foodsterr offers a variety of maple syrup varieties like the “Rich Amber” that has a more prolific and full flavour profile with hints of caramel and vanilla. The Dark Robust variety, on the other hand, has a bolder and more complex flavour with a touch of bourbon.
Through their annual campaigns supporting Thousand Enterprises through cash donations and SingHealth Polyclinics with product donations, they continue their mission to help Singaporeans eat better. The company offers a range of natural sweeteners, organic baby foods, dried fruits, snacks, nuts and more.
