Elsy Better than sugar, Sirop De Chicoree - thick fiber syrup sweetener without added sugar or sweeteners

There are products that replace sugar. And there are those that completely change the way we think about sweetening. Elsy Better Than Sugar – Sirop de Chicorée belongs to the latter category.

It is more than just an alternative to honey or agave syrup. It is a single-ingredient, 100% natural syrup made exclusively from soluble fiber from certified chicory grown in the EU – in France and Belgium. No added sweeteners. No flavorings. No "enhancers." Only chicory root extract – gently concentrated into a thick, caramelizing syrup.

It has a naturally sweet taste, a subtle, pure sweetness and a velvety, viscous consistency. It looks like honey, behaves like syrup, but its nutritional profile is a completely different story.

Elsa's Better than Sugar Syrup, Sirop De Chicoree compared to other natural sweeteners

• 169 kcal per 100 g – for comparison, sugar has 397 kcal, honey 304 kcal, coconut syrup 390 kcal.
• It contains only 9.5% sugars – 10 times less than white sugar (100%), significantly less than honey (80%), agave syrup (75%) or yacon (25%).
• As much as 66% fiber – while sugar and honey have 0%, and even coconut syrup has practically trace amounts.
• Glycemic index 12 – significantly lower than sugar (65), honey (55), coconut syrup (35) or agave (25).

This means less blood sugar fluctuations and greater energy stability. The syrup is very rich in prebiotic inulin fiber, which supports gut microbiota and digestion. That's why it's a natural fiber concentrate, not just "empty" sweetness.

• Nutri-Score A.
• Fat-free.
• No added sugar.
• No polyols.
• No sweeteners.

Thick, with a pure sweet taste, it wonderfully highlights the natural sweetness of dishes instead of aggressively dominating it.

Elsy Better than Sugar, Sirop De Chicoree works almost magically in a healthy kitchen:

• on protein pancakes and waffles, where it replaces honey without the sugar load
• in Greek yogurt or skyr with fruit
• as a sweet note in porridge and chia puddings
• in homemade date and nut bars
• in salad dressings (it makes a brilliant base with mustard and lemon)
• as an ingredient in marinades for tofu or roasted vegetables

• in low-sugar baked goods

It is a local European alternative to exotic agave syrups. Produced in Belgium from French and Belgian chicory, in line with Elsy's brand values: simplicity of composition, locality, and conscious nutrition.

The pleasure of sweet taste – without compromise.
