It splits sucrose (table sugar) into glucose and fructose, creating invert sugar that helps confectionery stay soft, retain moisture, and resist crystallization.
What is invertase enzyme?
Invertase (E1103) is the enzyme beta-fructofuranosidase, typically produced from yeast, that catalyzes the breakdown of sucrose into glucose and fructose for use in foods.
Is invertase bad for you?
No—it's considered safe at typical food levels (approved in the EU and GRAS in the U.S.). It’s digested like other proteins; enzyme sensitivities are rare.
What does invertase break down?
Sucrose (table sugar) into the simple sugars glucose and fructose (invert sugar).
Where is invertase found?
