The CMC Powder and GMS Powder Combo is a synergistic blend of two high-performance food-grade additives: Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) and Glycerol Monostearate (GMS). Together, they enhance the texture, stability, shelf life, and overall quality of a wide range of products. This combo is particularly effective in bakery, dairy, confectionery, and cosmetic applications where emulsification and thickening are crucial.
1. Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC Powder)
Function: Thickener, Stabilizer, Moisture Retainer
CMC is a water-soluble cellulose derivative that improves viscosity, prevents water separation, and provides smooth texture. It’s commonly used to enhance the body and stability of food and cosmetic formulations.
Key Benefits:
Excellent water binding and thickening properties
Stabilizes emulsions and prevents phase separation
Improves texture and extends product shelf life
2. Glycerol Monostearate (GMS Powder)
Function: Emulsifier, Stabilizer, Anti-caking Agent
GMS is a non-ionic emulsifier that enhances the aeration and softness of products. It reduces stickiness, controls fat crystallization, and creates smooth, uniform textures in food and cosmetics.
Key Benefits:
Promotes even mixing of oils and water
Enhances volume, softness, and texture in baked goods
Prevents crystallization in frozen and creamy products
Combined Applications:
Bakery Products: Enhances softness, moisture retention, and volume in bread, cakes, and pastries
Ice Cream & Dairy: Improves creaminess, prevents ice crystal formation, and stabilizes emulsions
Confectionery: Ensures smooth texture and prevents sugar bloom
Cosmetics: Provides stable emulsions in creams, lotions, and gels
Instant Mixes: Improves mixability, texture, and shelf stability
