What it is
Polyglycerol ester 60 (PGE 60) is a food ingredient made from glycerol and fatty acids. It is produced by reacting glycerol with fatty acids, often derived from vegetable oils, and then polymerizing the resulting mono- and diglycerides.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use PGE 60 as an emulsifier, which helps blend ingredients that normally don't mix, like oil and water. This improves texture and stability in a variety of baked goods and desserts, including puddings, cakes, cupcakes, and pastries.
Health notes
Polyglycerol ester 60 is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar polyglycerol esters and found them to be safe for consumption at typical levels. There is no widespread scientific controversy regarding its use at levels found in food.
Allergen info
Polyglycerol ester 60 is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
