Gum Arabic Powder

Staff Tips & Tricks

As a natural emulsifier and coating agent, Gum Arabic or acacia powder adds a touch of magic to confections and soft drinks, elevating their texture and consistency. Its notable use as a glaze creates a lustrous finish on chocolates, pastries, and fruits, leaving them with a shiny and extra-crunchy appeal. When applied to varnished nuts, Gum Arabic showcases its prowess—1 part dissolved in 2 parts water enhances the nuts' brilliance and extends their shelf life by locking in moisture. Beyond its role in confectionery, Gum Arabic proves its versatility in the kitchen. As a binding and thickening agent, it lends its assistance to sauces, soups, dressings, and ices, elevating their texture and flavor profile. Moreover, Gum Arabic effortlessly suspends essential oil and water mixtures, ensuring their uniform distribution and enhancing their aromatic potential.
