- Features and Benefits
- Preparations of FLOJEL® G modified starch are thin and fluid when hot and set to soft, tender gels upon cooling.
- These characteristics enable FLOJEL® G modified starch to be used at higher starch solids than conventional starches.
- This benefit allows the formulator the flexibility of using the required amount of starch to obtain gels of various degrees of firmness.
- This product is available under Ingredion Incorporated’s TRUETRACE ® Identity Preserved Program for no n -GM products.
