Elastic - Highly Elastic Plant-Based Gelling Agent 550g - Sosa

Elastic: the plant-based gelling agent for exceptional elasticity

Sosa Elastic is a compound gelling powder combining maltodextrin, carob bean gum (E410) and carrageenan (E407). It produces highly elastic, firm, resistant gels with a suppleness well beyond standard plant-based gelatines: preparations can be stretched, folded and handled without breaking or cracking. It is the gelling agent of choice for veils to be laid over preparations, gelled sheets and canelons, and any application where handling resistance is essential. It withstands freezing without syneresis — frozen preparations retain their full elasticity after thawing.

Dosage controls texture precisely: at 25 g/kg the gel is supple and elastic; at 50 g/kg it is firm and highly resistant.
