TIC Gums reveals Add-Here 3200 hydrocolloid system

March 25, 2013
Add-Here 3200 from TIC Gums provides more than just sweetness: it carefully mimics the stick, hold, and texture lost when sugar is replaced by high-intensity artificial sweeteners.

Add-Here 3200 is a hydrocolloid system that reduces or even eliminates the need for sugar, honey or high fructose corn syrup for binding, hold and shape in products like granola bars. Cereal clusters like these rely on the binding qualities of natural sweeteners to retain their forms.

Add-Here 3200 closely mimics the stick, hold, texture and stability lost when traditional sweeteners are reduced or removed and replaced with artificial types. Granola cereal clusters made with Add-Here 3200 demonstrate how the texture and appeal of fully sugared cereal and similar products can be closely mimicked or even improved upon with gums and gum systems.

Add-Here 3200 is a proprietary line of hydrocolloids that replaces the texture and binding qualities needed but with significantly less sugar. Add-Here 3200 delivers other functional benefits as well.

The Add-Here line of products is easily dispersible and readily soluble in cold water with viscosity low enough to be spray-able. It can also reduce drying time by as much as 20%.
