What are food additives?

In addition to the main ingredients such as flour, fat, sugar, salt, ammonium bicarbonate and others, there are food additives that are used for pastry and baking. They allow to prolong the life of a food, to improve its texture, its taste... We can distinguish them in several groups:

The emulsifiers which allow to bind the ingredients between them and to soften a mixture. The best known are lecithin and gum arabic.

Leavening agents: you know them, they are yeast, sodium bicarbonate...

Anti-oxidants (E300 to E399), which include lecithin, prevent food from spoiling due to oxidation, which causes fats to go rancid and color to change.

Sweeteners: all sugars, glucose, fructose, corn syrup... Depending on their texture, they can be used to sweeten your preparations or used in recipes to give them a specific texture.

Food coloring
No need to introduce them, they flavor your desserts so well. Make your choice among our numerous food flavors.

Thickeners and gelling agents to increase viscosity or allow gel formation. Examples: gelatin, pectin, agar agar, carrageenan.

Food coloring (E100 to E199) is used, as you might expect, to add or restore color to a food. No rainbow cake without food coloring
