Product Applications

Food Industry - Confectionery & Drinks

Confectionery:

As acidulant, its sourness is 1.5 times that of citric acid, lower dosage saves cost.
Extremely low hygroscopicity, powder won't cake; candies keep non-crystallized & non-sticky during long storage.
Stabilize pectin gel structure, improve shape retention of gummies, deliver clean fruity taste without bitter aftertaste.

Instant Powder Drinks & Meal Replacement:

Specially for powder formulas, no caking during storage, dissolves evenly when mixed with water.
Stabilize system pH value, inhibit bacteria & extend shelf life of powder products.
Enrich fruity flavor, ideal for fruit powder, effervescent tablets and nutritional meal powder.

Fumaric Acid Application in Bakery and Meat

Food Industry - Bakery & Preserved Food

Bakery Products:

Leavening auxiliary: produce uniform bubbles with sodium bicarbonate for fluffy bread & cakes.
High thermal stability, no decomposition or sourness loss during baking; delay dough aging.
Cost-effective substitute of tartaric acid, suitable for pre-mixed flour & frozen dough.

Cured Meat & Preserved Food:

Buffer pH to restrain mold & spoilage bacteria, reduce extra preservative dosage.
Anti-oxidation effect prevents meat grey discoloration and retains original meat flavor.
Accelerate curing penetration, prolong shelf life of cured meat, sausages and bacon.
