Unipectine® for Fruit Applications

While pectin has a long legacy in home kitchens and canning, recent advancements have sparked new innovations with this versatile, plant-based ingredient. An excellent thickener, gelling agent and stabilizer, today’s pectin is a source for satisfying mouthfeel in reduced-sugar beverages, shelf-stable appeal in low-pH dairy beverages, and flavorful gummies with label-friendly appeal.

• Supports sugar reduction – Pectin adds back the mouthfeel and richness that are lost when sugar is removed from a product.
• Creates body and texture – Pectin’s thickening and gelling properties are useful in creating a wide range of textures and viscosities.
• Stabilizes proteins – In acidified dairy products, pectin helps maintain proteins in suspension and prevents curdling.
• Label-friendly functionality – Fruit-based pectin can replace gelatin in vegetarian/vegan-friendly formulations.
