Acacia gum is a recent component that has been introduced by French ingredients player Alland & Robert. Plant-based formulations can benefit from Syndeo Gelling's novel and multifaceted stabilizing, gelling, thickening, binding, and texturing qualities as well as improved mouthfeel.

The fact that many of these items demand gelatin as an ingredient, which is typically created from collagen obtained from animals, is one of the major issues encountered by food makers, and in particular manufacturers of candy, gummies, and other marshmallows.

Consumers now seek out items made with plant-based ingredients because they are more concerned about their diets, the environment, and ethical issues. Gum acacia is combined with organic hydrocolloids from plants to create Syndeo Gelling. As a result, it can be utilized to create vegetarian or vegan food products.

For confectionery producers looking for gelatin alternatives, Syndeo Gelling's qualities offer a creative answer. Being of plant origin, it enhances the perception of sweets while leaving less of a negative environmental impact than goods of animal origin. This product provides thickening, stabilizing, bulking, and binding capabilities to recipes for confectionery, jelly sweets, and marshmallows without changing the sensory properties of jelly sweets.
