Default Isomalt?

Is anyone using it?

Do you find it easier and less complicated then classic sugar work?

Is it worth it?

I use it, and it's definitely easier to work with, but it's not as resistant to humidity as one might hope. It's very resilient, though, and can be re-melted without crystallizing.
