So, what is lecitina di girasole?

Lecitina di girasole, also known as sunflower lecithin, is a natural food ingredient derived from sunflower seeds. It is a mixture of phospholipids and is widely used as an emulsifier and stabilizer in food manufacturing. Sunflower lecithin has many advantages over soy lecithin, such as being allergen-free, non-GMO, and having a better taste profile. It is commonly found in products such as baked goods, chocolates, and sauces. Additionally, sunflower lecithin is also used in nutritional supplements and cosmetics for its emulsifying properties.
