Case Study: PURAC Powder Malic Acid in Sour Gummy

January 11, 2024 by Tara Dekovic

Case Study

Ingredient: PURAC Powder MA (Malic Acid)

Application: Sour Gummy

Challenge

Help a mochi gummy company find a sanding powder for their new sour watermelon gummy.

Process

After receiving this customer’s inquiry for a sanding powder, our Account Manager collaborated with Corbion, our Partner Supplier, to find a solution. Corbion recommended the customer sample PURAC Powder MA (Malic Acid).

Purac Powder MA is a clean and sour tasting malic acid powder with extreme stability and a patented (palm) oil free coating technology. This product was designed specifically for acid sanding in the confectionery market and addresses important functions such as immediate sourness, stability of the acid, no loss of sourness and taste. Additionally, this product helps combat the uptake of moisture to eliminate sticky and unattractively wet-looking candies.
