SOSA - Natural Thickener
Gelespessa Sosa 500 g
Xanthan gum-based thickener, for both cold and hot use.
Gelespessa Sosa is a natural-origin powdered thickener obtained by fermenting corn starch and combining maltodextrin with xanthan gum (E415). It works equally well cold or hot in aqueous liquids (juices, broths, purées), with a neutral taste and a texture that remains stable when frozen.

Processing
Use
Whisk or blend into the liquid preparation with an immersion blender to prevent lumps, cold or hot depending on the recipe, then leave to thicken for a few minutes. Once the desired texture is achieved, it does not return to a liquid state even when heated. Suitable for fruit coulis, sauces, purées, and plating garnishes that need to hold their shape on the plate.
Please note: no direct allergens (traces of milk and derivatives possible; multipurpose facility). Store in a dry place with the lid tightly closed.
