Information

Agar agar (E406) is a gelling agent derived from red seaweed. It forms strong gels at low concentrations and shows a unique thermal behaviour: agar gels set at around 35 to 40 °C and only melt again at around 85 °C. This makes it ideal for heat-resistant vegan confectionery, desserts, glazes, bakery fillings and dairy alternatives, where gelatine cannot be used. As a plant-based and organic ingredient, it supports vegan, vegetarian and clean-label positioning. Visit us at stand 30C32 to request samples of our agar agar.
