ADM spearheaded the development and application of corn sweeteners for the soft drink and beverage industry. Today, we are one of the leading producers of corn sweeteners at our five state-of-the-art production facilities in Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and Minnesota.

ADM offers this complete line of quality corn sweeteners in addition to fermentation starches for adult beverages, cocoa powders, milk modifiers, stabilizers for dairy and non-dairy drinks and beverages, plus an ever-expanding line of nutritional and functional
ingredients.

Sweeteners
Our full line of corn sweeteners includes corn syrups, high fructose corn syrups (HFCS), maltodextrin, crystalline fructose and dextrose.


Performance and Flavor Enhancers
ADM citric acid and citrates adjust pH levels while adding the tart citrus note that gives many popular beverages their signature. For when pH control is needed without citrus tartness, we offer lactic acid as well. Many flavors and colors function best at a specific pH level, so we can help you use acidulant systems such as citric acid/sodium citrate or lactic acid/sodium lactate to achieve the precise pH best for your beverages.


Fructose is known mostly for its clean taste and microbial stability, but it also can enhance fruit flavors so well that you can often reduce flavor usage. ADM ingredients can also help control your beverage?s look as well as its taste. Some soy proteins can be used as clouding agents in neutral beverage systems, while emulsifiers can be used to increase the whiteness of some beverages by tightening the overall emulsion.

Nutritional and Functional Ingredients
ADM offers a remarkable and growing range of nutritional ingredients to help you appeal to health-conscious consumers at all life stages. Nutritional products include NutriSoy?/a> soy protein, Novasoy?/a> brand soy isoflavones, Pro-Fam?/a> isolated soy proteins and Arcon?/a> soy protein concentrates, and CardioAid?plant sterols.

Particularly noteworthy is Fibersol-2? digestion resistant maltodextrin, an ADM-produced ingredient derived from corn. Fibersol-2? digestion resistant maltodextrin adds soluble dietary fiber with no adverse effect on beverage color, clarity or flavor. In fact, Fibersol-2? digestion resistant maltodextrin can actually help minimize off-flavors such as bitter taste in a soy-protein enriched nutrition shake, round out flavors for a more pleasing profile, or mellow an overly strong flavor note.
