Sosa - Pectine
Pectine Acid Free - 500 g
Calcium-enriched LMA pectin for creams, custards, and dairy products without acidity.
Sosa Pectine Acid Free is an amidated pectin enriched with calcium, designed to gel without acidity: creams, custards, dairy products, or fermented products. It is thermoreversible between 40 and 60 °C and does not cause syneresis, providing smooth, homogeneous textures even in calcium-rich environments.

Frequently asked questions
Why use an acid-free pectin?
Creams, custards, and dairy products have a pH that is too high for conventional pectins, which require an acidic environment. Pectine Acid Free is enriched with calcium to gel these neutral preparations without adding acid.
What is syneresis, and why does this pectin prevent it?
Syneresis is the release of water sometimes seen on the surface of a gel after a few hours. This pectin’s calcium-enriched formulation maintains a stable network that retains water, ensuring a smooth texture over time.
Can it be used in a very calcium-rich environment?
Yes, that is precisely one of its strengths: it was designed to work even in high-calcium preparations, unlike other pectins that lose their gelling power in such conditions.
