Beite Chemicals: A guide to the application of glyceryl capricate in all types of food

Glyceryl capricate is colorless and odorless, low viscosity transparent liquid, neutral. It is easy to mix with ethanol, isopropanol, chloromethane, glycerin and other solvents.

Glyceryl caprylate is widely used in food, as follows:

1. Application of flavors and fragrances:

Since octyl decyl ester can achieve colorless odorlessness, low viscosity, will not interfere with the fragrance of the flavor, in the fragrance can be used as a base for the flavor, dissolving agent, diluent, stabilizer. For example, it is widely used in emulsified flavors.

2, the application in candy:

Low-viscosity grease is required in confectionery coating for an ideal glossy, non-stick vitreous appearance, and glyceryl capricate is the ideal raw material. Use it in conjunction with beehive for a better coat look. In the gummy as a coating agent, it has the advantages of high transparency, no odor, and bright color of candy. Its metabolic and nutritional functions make it a good raw material in children's candy.

3. Application in chocolate:

The use of caprylic glyceric acid in chocolate, combined with lecithin, improves the fluidity of chocolate during processing, and can improve the instant solubility, gloss and smoothness of chocolate. Reduces the phenomenon of frost onset and extends the shelf life.

4. Application of gum sugar:

Add caprylyl glycerides to gum sugar, which can be used as a softener, emulsifier, easy to produce and operate, improve the softness of the product, fragrant taste alcohol, smooth and delicate taste, non-stick teeth, blown bubbles non-stick face, long shelf life. Most gum and sugar companies in China use this product.

5. Application in grease:

In view of the caprylate glyceride has the feeling of "oil", the calorie is lower than that of ordinary edible oil, so it is used to make salad condiment baked food and cold vegetables, which is a low-calorie nutritional food, adding caprylic glyceric acid to edible oil can improve the nutritional value of edible oil and adjust the lipid structure for people's nutritional health care and weight loss, promote digestion and absorption, and is very beneficial. Adding it to margarine can improve the mischief and stability between oils and fats, and solve the problem of oil delamination and poor crystallization. The cream taste is delicate, the spreadability is good, the plasticity is good, the quality of the product is improved, and the processing performance of the cream is improved.

6. Application in dairy products:

The glyceryl capricate is used together with lecithin as an emulsifier for dairy products, which does not affect the flavor of milk, can improve the solubility of milk, reduce the liposegregation phenomenon of milk, regulate the fat composition of dairy products, and obtain more reasonable products for nutritional health care.

7. Application in cold drink products:

Ice cream products containing glyceryl capricate are delicious, fragrant, non-greasy and have a long shelf life. The caprylate glyceride is used in other cold drink products, the product has good emulsification, delicate appearance, good taste, easy production operation, is an ideal emulsifier, stabilizer, nutrient blend. Can be made into functional cold drink products. In foreign countries, glyceryl capricate is widely used in cold beverage products, which have the effect of nutritional health care and promoting digestion and absorption.

8. Application in food emulsifiers:

In emulsified milk products, cold drink products, soy milk, turbid solid and liquid beverages, caprylate glycerides can be used as turbidity, emulsifiers, stabilizers, wetting agents and nutrient regulators. When it is combined with other emulsifiers, it will produce good miscible and stability, while also having good oxidation resistance, and no greasy feeling, can be used for water-in-oil (o/w) and water-in-oil (w/o) emulsifiers for a variety of foods.

9. Application in health food:

Because glyceryl capricate has its unique nutritional health function, it is a functional food additive, but also a health food, and it has also been well used in health food. Other health ingredients can be added to glycerol capricate to make water, emulsions, powders, capsules and tablets for use as health food.

10. Other applications in food:

Caprylic glycerol can also be used as a thinner, brightener, polish, turbidity agent, antioxidant in food. Such as for the dilution of pigments, vitamins, flavors and fragrances and medicines; candy and pastry coating polishing; bread food demoulding; beverage products turbidity; meat products can play a good role.
