Acacia gum has good emulsifying properties, especially suitable for oil-in-water emulsion system, widely used as emulsion stabilizer in emulsion essence;It also has good film-forming properties; as a microcapsule film-forming agent for converting essential oils or other liquid raw materials into powder form, it can prolong flavor quality and prevent oxidation, and is also used as a flavor carrier for baked products.
gum arabic can hinder the formation of sugar crystals, used as anti-crystallization agent in candy, prevent crystal precipitation, can also effectively emulsified milk fat in milk sugar to avoid spillage;
