🥧 : Why Low Acyl Gellan Gum Is the Perfect Choice for Bakery Fillings and Pie Gels
🍒 What Makes a Perfect Bakery Filling?
Bakery fillings — for pies, turnovers, danishes, and pastries — demand:
- 🧁 Firm, sliceable texture
- 🔥 Heat-stable during baking
- 🧊 Freezer-thaw stability
- 🍓 Clear fruit suspension
- 🌾 No weeping or syneresis
Achieving all of this with a clean-label hydrocolloid can be difficult… unless you use the right low acyl gellan gum.

- Cereal bar inclusions
- Swirl gels and layered desserts
It delivers:
- ✅ Clean cut
- ✅ Stable fruit suspension
- ✅ No breakdown during heating or storage
- ✅ Ultra-low usage (0.1–0.3%)
🧪 Performance Highlights in Bakery Applications

👨🍳 Application Example: Apple Pie Filling
Recommended Formulation:
- Apples or fruit base: 40–50%
- Sugar: 25–35%
- Water: 10–15%
- Low acyl gellan gum: 0.15–0.25%
- Acid and calcium salts: as needed for gel structure
🔄 Process:
- Disperse gellan gum in water/sugar phase
- Heat to 90–95°C until fully hydrated
- Add fruit and acid
- Fill and cool — ready to bake or store
The result? A crystal-clear, stable, bake-proof fruit filling with no leakage or collapse.
