This Pretested Agaroid RS 520 is part of the company's Agaroid line of readily soluble agars. Agaroid RS consists of naturally occurring hydrocolloid derived from red seaweed, and other gelling hydrocolloids. It can achieve complete hydration at temperatures as low as 160ºF.
Whether the product is candy, icings, pastries, margarine or dairy products, agaroid systems offer an excellent alternative to gelatin. When added to cold water, as in the gummy bear formulation, the systems need only be heated to 180ºF to achieve full gelling capacity. The gums also help food manufacturers respond to consumer concern about gelatin, and a desire for more vegetarian and Kosher products. The end result is an all-natural gummi bear made more easily and less expensively.
