Nature-based ingredients company CP Kelco has introduced its latest innovation in the gellan gum product line, the KELCOGEL® DFA Gellan Gum. Discovered by the company 40 years ago in bacterial culture in a lily pond, this ingredient is now processed via fermentation for industrial applications.

As an alternative to locust bean gum, this product improves desired suspension and mouthfeel of the drink. It ensures the extra protein, calcium, vitamins and other micronutrients stay evenly suspended, therefore simplifying ingredient list of the beverage item.

“As consumer demand for plant-based dairy alternative beverages continues to boom, locust bean gum supply and pricing have been volatile globally. Our new KELCOGEL® DFA Gellan Gum serves as a proven alternative solution to replace or reduce locust bean gum in plant-based beverage formulations,” said Shaw Gilmer, Sr. Director, Biogums Strategic Platform at CP Kelco. “With our newest gellan gum grade, developers can deliver a simpler product label and potentially reduce their total cost in use without compromising on quality. It’s a win-win for both the dairy alternative drink producer and consumers.”

This gellan gum solution is the newest addition to CP Kelco’s dairy alternative beverage portfolio, which includes NUTRAVA® Citrus Fibe, GENU® Pectin and GENU® Carrageenan.
