Sunflower lecithin Powder is a fine light yellow oil-free lecithin obtained from de-oiling of Standard Sunflower Lecithin. Sunflower lecithin Powder is a pure form of Phospholipids with minimum 96%. It is more convenient to handle since the oil has been removed from it. De-oiled Lecithin is also more hydrophilic than Standard Liquid Lecithin. Sunflower lecithin Powder has been found useful in a wide variety of food processing applications. As a food emulsifier it is used in the manufacture of margarine and vegetable or dairy based milk replacers. Sunflower lecithin Powder is the active ingredient in many food grade release agents such as pan oils, griddle greases and aerosol coatings. It is also used to alter viscosity in chocolate products and compound coatings. In bread baking applications, lecithin acts to improve dough machinability, volume, symmetry and shelf life. In crackers, cookies, pastry, cakes and pies lecithin improves shortening dispersion and acts as a release agent.
