Sucro 500g

Sucro (E473) – Emulsifier and Texturiser

Sucro is a powdered emulsifier obtained by esterifying sucrose with food-grade fatty acids derived from palm oil. An extremely versatile ingredient, it is used in baking, pastry, cereals, dairy products, ice cream and sauces. Often used in low-fat versions to improve mouthfeel, Sucro also gives baked goods a finer structure and softer texture, improves stability in dairy products and sauces, and enhances the texture and flavour of mousses and ice cream.

Alongside emulsification, it performs many other functions:

• Aeration to create light, stable foams
• Protein protection to prevent premature browning
• Prevention of fat and sugar crystallisation, useful for avoiding fat bloom in chocolate
• Improvement of air bubble structure, ideal for mousses and light desserts
• Acceleration of crystallisation in fine sugars

Suitable for vegans and vegetarians; non-GMO, gluten-free, non-irradiated

Directions for Use

Dissolve in water first, then slowly add to the fat phase.

To make alcohol foams, dissolve Sucro in a mixture of water and sugar, then emulsify with your chosen alcohol using a hand blender. This produces a light, stable foam, perfect for decorations, innovative cocktails and striking presentations.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light. Use within 6 months of opening.
