What it is

Pork gelatine is a protein derived from collagen found in the skin, bones, and connective tissues of pigs. It is produced by boiling these animal parts in water, which breaks down the collagen into a soluble form. The resulting liquid is then purified, concentrated, and dried to create gelatine.

Why it's used

Gelatine is primarily used as a gelling agent, thickener, and stabilizer in food products. It gives a chewy texture to candies, helps set desserts like puddings and mousses, and can improve the texture of yogurts and ice cream. It is also used in marshmallows and gummy candies.

Health notes

In the U.S., gelatine is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used for its intended purpose. It is a source of protein and amino acids. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated gelatine. While generally considered safe, some individuals may have concerns about its animal origin.

Allergen info

Pork gelatine is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
