Stabilizer blends for ice lollies

Even though stabilizers such as guar gum, alginate, locust bean gum, xanthan, CMC and many others only make up a fraction of the finished product, they have a significant impact on the quality of the ice lolly and ultimately on the consumer experience.

As each type of stabilizer has a different impact on the ice lolly, it requires great skill and expertise to manage the correct blend of stabilizers and to get them just right. Palsgaard has over 55 years of experience in stabilizer blends for ice lollies, offering unrivalled levels of expertise to enable our customers to achieve the very best results.

It's important for the consumer to enjoy a fresh and perfect looking ice lolly right up until it's completely eaten. The main functions of the stabilizer, therefore, are to control the formation of ice crystals and prevent flavour and colour from being sucked out of the product during consumption.

Our wide range of  stabilizers for ice lollies will provide:

• Freshness
• Improved mouth feel
• Controlled flavour/colour release
• High stability even at a very low pH
• Control of ice crystal growth
