In this article, we’ll discuss each ingredient and how they work together to create a delicious vegan gummy.
Gélatine
You may not be aware of it, but vegan gummies are not made with gelatin. Gelatin comes from animal sources and is incredibly disgusting. While it looks harmless and can be an essential component of many candies and desserts, the way it is made is truly horrific. After all, gelatin is derived from animal parts, including the skin, connective tissues, and bones. And while gelatin may not seem like much of a problem on the surface, its manufacturing process is horrifying and has a negative impact on the environment.
The base ingredient for gummies has long been gelatin. While it still remains the most common polymer used in gummy formulations, modern consumers are more selective than ever. Nearly 75 million people eat a plant-based diet, while another 35 million practice a halal or kosher diet. Those who are vegan, vegetarian, or eat a kosher diet are concerned about animal products, and vegan gummies are made without gelatin.
Beeswax
You might have wondered, how come beeswax is still used in gummy vitamins? It’s a common ingredient in confectionery and is commonly used as a sealant and varnish. The material is derived from the female lac beetle, which is native to Thailand and India. Beeswax is a resin obtained from the lac beetle’s abdominal wax glands. It is used as an additive in gummy vitamins and keeps them fresh. But beeswax is not vegan because it is derived from an animal, and the insect is threatened by the use of beeswax in the food industry.
Many other foods and drinks contain animal products, but you won’t always recognize them. Be sure to check the ingredient list to see what animal-derived ingredients are in the product. Beeswax is a common ingredient used in confectionery and many other products. Beeswax is also a common ingredient in gummy bears. While beeswax is not vegan, it is a common ingredient in gummy bears.
Carraghénane
The invention relates to a texturizer composition, which replaces gelatin with low-viscosity iota carrageenan. This composition is capable of reducing the amount of gelatin used in food products and is suitable for gummy confectionery production. It fulfills a technological need in the food manufacturing industry due to the growing popularity of vegan gummies. However, gelatin-based gummies can be processed at temperatures below 90 degrees, making it difficult to replace them with carrageenans without losing the texture and stability of the product.
The dietary fiber called carrageenan is isolated from red seaweed. It is a polysaccharide that contains repeating galactose units connected by alternating a1-3 and b1-4 glycosidic linkages. The sulfation of carrageenans varies widely. Different seaweeds yield different amounts of the ingredient. Iota carrageenan is obtained from Eucheuma denticulatum. It has a 25 to 34% sulfate ester content.
Pectine
With consumer preferences shifting toward less sugar and plant-based options, many confectioners are looking for vegan alternatives. With consumer demands growing, brand owners are scrambling to meet these new needs. Pectin is a natural gelling agent that has become a popular choice for vegan confections. The plant-based alternative to gelatin is now available in factory-produced vegan gummies.
Traditionally, gelatin is used in gummies and is not suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Instead, Herbaland uses pectin. Pectin has the same gelling property as gelatin, but does not have the same negative impact on the body as gelatin does. The plant-based alternative, pectin, has countless health benefits and is suitable for vegans.
Pectin is naturally sourced from apple skin, orange peel, and lemon peel. It is an excellent gelling agent, thickener, and stabilizer. Because it is plant-based, it produces minimal waste. Pectin is an excellent choice for vegan gummies. These are delicious and easy to make at home and are perfect for vegans and zero-waste lifestyles.
