So, what is propionato de cálcio?

Propionato de cálcio, also known as calcium propionate, is a white crystalline powder commonly used as a food preservative. It is a safe and effective way to inhibit the growth of mold and bacteria in baked goods, processed meats, dairy products, and other foods. Unlike some other preservatives, propionato de cálcio has a neutral taste and does not affect the flavor or texture of the food. Additionally, it is easily soluble in water, making it an ideal choice for many food manufacturers looking for a reliable and easy-to-use preservative.
