Animal Gelatine
Sosa Instangel (Animal Gelatine) 500g is a professional-grade fast-setting gelling agent made from animal gelatine. Designed for chefs and home cooks looking for speed, consistency and reliability in gelled desserts, it allows you to create jellies, mousses, panna cotta and aspics without waiting hours for a full set. Unlike traditional leaf or powdered gelatine, Instangel activates quickly in cold or lukewarm liquid and sets as the mixture cools, making it ideal for those searching for “quick setting gelatine” or “fast gelatine for desserts”. With its neutral taste and clear finish, it blends easily into both sweet and savoury dishes without altering flavour.

What is the best way to use Sosa Instangel?
Instangel should be added directly to your cold or lukewarm liquid while stirring. Once blended, allow it to rest or chill, it will set as it cools, no boiling required.
How is it different from regular gelatine?
Unlike standard powdered or leaf gelatine, Instangel is cold-soluble and fast-setting. It’s useful when you need to speed up prep or avoid heating delicate ingredients.
Can it be reheated once set?
Instangel is not thermoreversible. Once set, reheating will not return it to a liquid state, so it’s best used in cold-set or served-cold dishes.
How much should I use?
The typical dosage is around 10–15g per litre of liquid. You may need to adjust depending on the texture you’re aiming for.
