The harvesting areas are mostly situated in west Africa and India. Gum Karaya is a high molecular-weight acelytated polysaccharide composed of galactose, rhamnose, glucuronic and galacturonic acids. The molecular weight is between 5 000 000 and 8 000 000. Gum Karaya of superior grades comes in tears of variable sizes , pale yellow, pearly, translucent and striated. Average grades have a yellow or pink colour, while low grades are brown. Gum Karaya may be used in oil in water emulsions, encapsulations, as a thickener - stabilizer in soft drinks and as a thickener, fibre enrichment, fat replacer and stabilizer in dairy products. view less | |

Karaya, at 0.2–o.4% alone, or at 0.15% locust bean gum, stabilizes ice pops and sherbets by preventing the formation of large ice crystals and preventing the migration of free water or syneresis. Karaya, used in meringue powders, enables a greater volume of meringue to be prepared from a fixed amount of protein. In cheese spreads, 0.8% or less, Karaya is used to prevent water separation and to increase spreadability. Its acidic nature is not objectionable in these dairy products. Karaya, Carrageenin and locust bean gums have been used to stabilize natural and imitation whipping cream. view less | |
