# Maltitol’s cooling effect in chocolate — how do you mask it?

Maltitol is the go-to bulk sweetener for sugar-free chocolate, but some consumers notice a cooling sensation that plain sucrose never has. We are curious how formulators handle it.

- Do you blend in another polyol or a small amount of sugar?
- Does a particular fat system reduce the perception?
- Has anyone tried allulose or inulin alongside maltitol?

Tell us what worked, and whether the fix held up in a panel test or only in the lab.
