Sosa Fruit Pectin 500g

Fruit Pectin Gelling Agent

Sosa Fruit Pectin 500g is a high-quality setting agent widely used in professional kitchens and by home cooks for making jams, fruit jellies, glazes, and confitures. Extracted from citrus fruits, this natural gelling agent helps create a smooth, consistent set without affecting the flavour or colour of your finished product. Whether you're batch-making raspberry jam or preparing a glossy fruit tart glaze, this pectin offers reliable performance and an easy way to achieve a firm but not rubbery texture.

Ideal for sweet applications with high sugar content, Sosa Fruit Pectin is a go-to ingredient for those wanting control over the consistency of their preserves. It dissolves easily when mixed with sugar and works best when added to fruit mixtures before cooking.

What is the best way to use fruit pectin in jam making?

Mix the pectin thoroughly with sugar before adding it to your fruit. Heat the mixture to activate the gelling process. This avoids lumps and ensures an even set.

Is Sosa Fruit Pectin suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets?

Yes, this pectin is plant-based and derived from citrus fruits, making it suitable for vegetarians. However, always check if it’s been used with other non-vegan ingredients in a recipe.

Can I use Sosa Fruit Pectin in low-sugar recipes?

This specific pectin type works best in high-sugar applications. For low-sugar or sugar-free recipes, a different type of pectin (such as low-methoxyl) would be more suitable.

How much pectin should I use per kilo of fruit?

A common starting ratio is 15g of pectin per 1kg of fruit and 750g sugar. However, this can vary depending on the fruit’s natural pectin content.
