Abstract
The invention relates to viscous liquid compositions of xylitol which are noncrystallizable or which exhibit retarded crystallization, characterized by the fact that they contain: PA1 from 51% to 80% of xylitol, PA1 from 0.1% to 44% of D-arabitol, PA1 from 5% to 48.9% of non-reducing oligomers or polymers of glucose, these percentages being expressed on the dried basis for the compositions. It also relates to a process for producing these compositions. These compositions can be used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical and confectionery industry.
