What it is
Creme coating is a sweet, often creamy mixture used to coat or fill food products. It is typically made from sugar, fat (like vegetable oil or shortening), and flavorings, and may also contain emulsifiers and stabilizers to achieve the desired texture and consistency.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use creme coating to add sweetness, a smooth texture, and a rich flavor to foods. It is commonly found in confectionery, baked goods like cookies and cakes, and snack items such as popcorn and coated nuts.
Health notes
Creme coatings are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are primarily composed of sugar and fat, and excessive consumption of such ingredients can contribute to high calorie intake. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated many of the common ingredients used in creme coatings.
Allergen info
Depending on the specific ingredients used, creme coatings may contain major allergens such as milk or soy. It is not inherently a source of gluten. Consumers should check the ingredient list for specific allergen information.
