What is Gellan Gum?
Gellan Gum is a high-performance, water-soluble polysaccharide produced via microbial fermentation. Used primarily as a gelling, suspending, and stabilizing agent, it’s favored in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries. It can form a wide range of gel textures—from firm and brittle to soft and elastic—depending on ion presence and concentration. Gellan is especially valued in plant-based milks to suspend solids and improve mouthfeel.
