So, what is lecitiña de soya?

Lecitina de soya, also known as soy lecithin, is a natural emulsifier extracted from soybeans. It is a yellow-brownish powder with a nutty flavor and a slightly sweet taste. Lecithin is used in a wide range of food products, including chocolates, baked goods, and margarine, due to its ability to improve texture and extend shelf life. It is also used in non-food industries such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications. While it is derived from soy, it does not contain significant amounts of allergens, making it a safe ingredient for most consumers.
