So, what is cocoglycerides?
Cocoglycerides are a versatile food ingredient derived from coconut oil and glycerin. They are a type of emulsifier used in food production to blend together ingredients that would not normally mix, such as oil and water. Cocoglycerides are known for their ability to stabilize food products, prevent separation, and extend shelf life. They are commonly found in baked goods, dairy products, and confectionery items. As a natural and sustainable alternative to synthetic emulsifiers, cocoglycerides are gaining popularity among health-conscious consumers who value clean-label products.
