Agar Agar

Agar Agar is a complex polysaccharide extracted from Red Seaweed of the class Rhodophyceae. Due to its ability to form a firm thermo-reversible gel, one of the unique aspects of Agar is the temperature difference between its gelation point and melting point. This stability can be utilized in many applications such as sugar glazes for doughnuts and pastries. Product is also used in non starch breads and desserts as a non-nutritive bulking agent to produce low calorie products.
