Designed to bridge the long-standing gap between starch and gelatin systems, <strong>Emjel<\/strong>\u00ae<strong>LC 15<\/strong> enables atmospheric cooking \u2014 delivering the same processing ease traditionally associated with gelatin, now in a fully plant-based solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conventional starch-based jellies require high cooking temperatures and complex processing conditions to achieve full gelatinization and the desired texture. Gelatin, on the other hand, works efficiently under atmospheric conditions, making production simpler and gentler on sensitive ingredients. Until now, this difference has limited the use of starches in premium jelly and gum applications. <strong>Emjel<\/strong>\u00ae<strong> LC 15 changes that.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this innovation, manufacturers can produce gelatin-free products without switching to pressure or vacuum cooking systems \u2014 while achieving the smooth, elastic texture and clear appearance consumers expect from high-quality confectionery such as gums and jellies. At the same time, these products enjoy improved thermostability, maintaining their structure even at elevated temperatures where gelatin-based products may soften or melt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>With Emjel\u00ae LC 15, confectionery producers can:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Produce gelatin-free jellies under atmospheric conditions<\/strong> \u2014 no need for pressure or vacuum cooking systems, also suitable for starch-less moulding<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Achieve gelatin-like quality<\/strong> with a smooth, elastic texture and clear appearance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Improve product thermostability<\/strong>, ensuring better resistance to heat compared to gelatin-based recipes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Expand into vegan, halal, and kosher markets<\/strong> with a fully plant-based solution<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Protect sensitive ingredients<\/strong> such as natural flavors, colors, and vitamins thanks to gentler processing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reduce energy consumption and costs<\/strong> through lower cooking temperatures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Redefining what\u2019s possible in jelly and gum production, <strong>Emjel\u00ae LC 15<\/strong> delivers the processing advantages of gelatin combined with the benefits of a starch-based, plant-derived ingredient.
