Powdered Soya Lecithin
Toufood Lecitin is a versatile soy lecithin powder designed for creating light, stable foams and “airs” from a wide range of liquids. Known for its natural emulsifying properties, it is widely used in modern cooking to introduce delicate texture and visual contrast without altering flavour.
When blended into liquids such as juices, broths or oils, lecithin helps trap air to form a fine, airy foam that sits beautifully on top of dishes. The result is a light, almost cloud-like finish that adds interest and balance, whether used in sweet or savoury recipes.
Highly efficient, this lecithin powder requires only small quantities to achieve consistent results, making it a practical choice for repeated use. From citrus airs to herb-infused foams, it offers a simple way to introduce refined presentation and texture.

- Create a savoury oil-based foam to finish salads or roasted vegetables with a modern touch.
How do you create a stable foam using lecithin powder?
Blend the lecithin into the liquid using a hand blender, then tilt the container slightly to introduce air at the surface. The foam will form on top and can be spooned off immediately.
Why is lecithin used for foams instead of other emulsifiers?
Lecithin has a unique ability to stabilise air bubbles at the surface of liquids, rather than just combining fat and water, which makes it particularly effective for creating light, airy textures.
Can lecithin foams be prepared in advance?
Foams made with lecithin are best served immediately, as they are designed to be light and delicate. They can be re-blended quickly just before serving if needed.
