Fumaric acid, the best ally for providing stability and flavor to your formulations.

The gummies and candies market is an ever-evolving market where one of the differentiating factors among brands is the ingredients used, such as acidulants and acidity regulators. Although they are used in very small quantities within the formulation, they allow for variations in acidic sensations for consumers.

The function of acidulants and acidity regulators is to enhance and/or modify the acidity of a food, and they are categorized in this market segment as flavor enhancers, buffers, and even preservatives.

The HWS fumaric acid manufactured by Addimentum is an additive that primarily helps increase gel strength in gelatin/gummy products. It is excellent for powdered sour candies and acts as an anti-caking agent. It also enhances acidic flavors, intensifying certain astringent notes in the formulation and allowing this sensation to last longer.

Usage recommendations suggest that for every kilogram of citric acid, you can replace it with 0.70 kg of fumaric acid, providing the same mouthfeel of acidity.
