It has been standardised keeping constant its viscosity throughout. According with 2008/84/EC specifications. The product does not content any ingredient that has been produced from any Genetically Modified Organism (GMO’s). Therefore, the product has not to be labelled regarding GMO’s according to the regulations (CE) 1829/2003 and 1830/2003. The addition of lecithin in chocolate counching process reduces the viscosity of the mixture of cocoa powder, sugar and cocoa butter. As a result of that, it diminishes both the energetic cost and the cocoa butter amount to be added. Slows down fat crystallisation and prevents fat bloom. Likewise, the marked increase in viscosity that occurs when water is present is largely overcome by the addition of lecithin. This is particularly useful in ice-cream coatings where moisture from the centre can cause excessive thickening of the chocolate in the coating machinery. In cocoa powder for instant products, lecithin covers the fat powders with a thin hydrophilic film, allowing the water to wet and disintegrate the agglomerates. The recommended dosage is 0.3-0.5% in chocolate and 0.5-0.8% in cocoa powder for instant products. Lecithin has also application in other foodstuffs as margarines, cookies, instant food, bread and so on. view less | |

It is a complex mixture of polar lipids (phospholipids, glycolipids and lysophospholipids) with hydrophilic properties, and is easily dispersible in water for food application. This product complies with purity criteria laid down in Directive 2008/84/EC for number E-322. The product does not content any ingredient that has been produced from any Genetically Modified Organism (GMO’s). Therefore, the product has not to be labelled regarding GMO’s according to the regulations (CE) 1829/2003 and 1830/2003. Giralec HE-60 is a special hydrolysed lecithin much more hydrophilic than native lecithin, and designed for its use in food when a high polarity lecithin is required. GIRALEC HE-60 can be applied in margarine at 0.2 to 0.5% on fat basis. In bread and pastry improvers, the dosage has to be calculated in order to have between 200 and 500 g of Giralec HE-60 on 100 Kg of flour. view less |
