A natural enzyme derived from yeast, used to break down sucrose into simpler sugars — glucose and fructose. This process creates a softer, creamier texture, which is why it's found in chocolate-coated fondant sweets and liqueur chocolates. Generally considered very safe — it's a biological catalyst that works in tiny amounts and leaves no harmful residues. Approved for use in confectionery and widely regarded as one of the least concerning additives on the list.
