MERON Low Methoxyl Pectin 100 g

Low Methoxyl (LM) Pectin is a plant-based gelling and texturising agent commonly derived from citrus fruits and apples. It is widely used in bakery, confectionery, dairy, dessert, and fruit-based applications for creating smooth, stable textures and maintaining product structure. Unlike high methoxyl pectin, LM Pectin can form gels with low or zero sugar when activated by calcium, making it particularly suitable for reduced-sugar and sugar-free formulations. It performs effectively across a wide pH range of approximately 2.0-6.0 and can provide good stability during processing and heat treatment. LM Pectin helps improve texture, consistency, and gel strength while supporting clean-label formulations, making it a versatile choice for jams, jellies, fruit preparations, dairy desserts, confectionery products, and other food applications where controlled gel formation and reduced sugar content are required.
