Applications
Sauces and dressings
Emulsified dressings, relishes and condiment bases
It builds viscosity at very low use levels and holds it across a wide pH range, which suits acidified products.
Bakery
Sugar paste, icing and decorative work
It gives worked paste elasticity and dry strength, so fine decoration holds its shape.
Cosmetics
Creams, lotions and gel bases
It suspends solids and stabilises emulsions without the tack of synthetic thickeners.
