a sweet, thick liquid that contains a lot of glucose (= a type of sugar) and is used in food production to make food sweeter, thicker, or less dry. It is made from grains such as corn, wheat, and barley

Toppings are usually a mix of glucose syrup, additives, synthetic flavourings, artificial sweeteners and preservatives. 涂层通常是淀粉糖浆、添加剂、合成香料、人工甜味剂和防腐剂的混合物。

The low prices of glucose syrups produced from wheat and corn (maize) threaten the traditional sugar market. 用小麦和玉米生产的淀粉糖浆价格低廉，对传统糖业市场形成了威胁。
