Described herein are food product compositions comprising a sugar reduction solution comprising a rare sugar, xylo-oligosaccharide, or a combination thereof as a partial or complete replacement for a nutritive sweetener. Various food products containing compositions described herein and methods of making the same are also described. Beneficially, compositions comprising the sugar reduction solution described herein are more stable compositions that do not exhibit syneresis and/or enable the starch content contained therein to be reduced in comparison to full-sugar starch-containing products.
