Gelatine is classified as a foodstuff and, is not a food additive with an E number. Gelatine is a natural and healthy food that has a long history with many uses.

All gelatine is a by-product of the meat industry. Factories produce highly refined gelatine. Strict controls ensure the quality of raw materials used to manufacture gelatine. All raw materials must be certified fit for human consumption. This means that the raw material used to make gelatine comes from the same animal that supplied meat to your supermarket or butcher.

Blooming gelatine

Many people think that there is an art to using gelatine – but really it is more like a science and, as long as you follow a few simple rules you should get good results every time.

Soak the gelatine for 30 minutes or more in 3 to 4 times its own weight of cold water or other liquid

Heat this mixture up gently over some form of double boiler, or in the microwave, until it forms a clear liquid.

NB     Never allow gelatine to boil, or use boiling water, as this affects the strength of the gelatine.

There is a second meaning of the word “bloom”. Bloom indicates the gelling strength of the powder. Gelatine strength starts at approximately 90 Bloom (the weakest) to 300 Bloom (the strongest).
