Carrageenan Kappa, 100g
Use carrageenan kappa to create crystal clear gels for topping creme caramel flans and tarte au citrons. This 100% natural powder makes a wonderful vegetarian alternative to gelatine.
Carrageenan kappa also strengthens in the presence of calcium meaning it works especially well alongside milk and dairy-based ingredients, ideal for panna cottas and creamy custard tarts.
Follow the below instructions for using carrageenan kappa:
- Dosage rates: 0.2% – 2.0%.
