Earth Products Apple Pectin is a single-ingredient apple-derived powder used as a soluble fibre supplement, a vegan setting agent in food, and a functional ingredient in cosmetic formulations. It has a neutral taste and comes in a convenient powder form, which makes it easy to blend into water, juice, jams, desserts, and other recipes. This is not animal gelatine, so it is especially useful where a plant-based alternative is preferred. It can also be used in shampoos, conditioners, and lotions where a gentle thickening or texture-supporting ingredient is wanted.
♡ Why we love it: Apple pectin is one of those quietly useful ingredients that fits into more than one part of a natural lifestyle. It is especially handy for makers who like one simple ingredient that can move from the kitchen shelf to the formulation bench with ease.
