When glucose and fructose are combined, it forms a Maltose, or you can also say malt sugar, just like if you would call glucose sugar.

Hope this helps :)

Maltose, or malt sugar, is a disaccharide formed by a dehydration reaction between two glucose molecules. The most common disaccharide is sucrose, or table sugar, which is composed of the monomers glucose and fructose.

Hope This Helps! Have A Nice Day!!
