Bovine Gelatin
Bovine Gelatin is extracted from bovine hide/bone, it is widely used in food industry. Bovine Gelatin can be used alone or in combination with other colloids in the production of confectionery. As edible gelatin powder, bovine gelatin is widely used in the production of gel candies, liquor core sugar, yogurt ingot sugar, licorice sugar, fruit flavored Swiss sugar and other products.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The characteristics and usage of food grade gelatin powder are very diverse. In the production of confectionery, its gelling properties and thermal plasticity are mainly used. As a protein, thermo-reversible properties are characteristic of bovine gelatin, which makes the sugar liquid to be gelled when it cools and melted when it is heated. This is the most important characteristic of bovine gelatin and it is also the most widely using property in the production of confectionery. According to the different characteristics of gelatin powder, bovine gelatin’s main role in candy production is also different.
