Acacia (Gummiarabicum) in kaltem oder warmen Wasser auflösen. Die Auflösung kann erleichtert werden, indem das Acacia vorher mit Puderzucker vermischt wird. Acacia braucht mindestens die doppelte Menge an Wasser, um sich gut zu hydratisieren.
Acacia is a thickener of natural origin extracted from tree sap from the genus Acacia. It is a raw material widely used in the food industry as a carrier and emulsifier for flavours and essential oils, coating agent for coated confectionery or gelling agent for certain very firm textured confectionery specialities.
Properties: coating agent, thickener, stabilizer and gelling agent at a very high dosage
Recommended dosage: according to the application 0.05 - 5% or until 50%
Recommended use:
• Dissolve Acacia in the cold or hot liquid preparation
• You can facilitate dissolution with the pre-mixed Acacia and powdered sugar from the recipe
• Acacia requires at least twice its weight in water to hydrate properly. Typical applications include: coating and polishing of coated confectionery, glossy top layers on biscuit products or chocolate moulds, traditional oriental or Nordic confectionery with a very firm texture (chewy sweets)
Comment / Limitations: Acacia will have a very low impact on viscosity at low to medium dosages. It is also insoluble in alcohol or oil
