MERIGEL® 310 is a versatile modified waxy maize starch (non-GMO). It is an instant (cold water swelling) thickening waxy maize starch (E1412; distarch phosphate), widely used in high solids fruit fillings, bakery applications, snacks, dry mix soups, sauces, and dressings for its quick thickening and texturizing properties. Food manufacturers benefit from MERIGEL® 310’s ability to achieve desired textures and maintain consistency, enhancing the quality and shelf life of finished products. Key benefits of MERIGEL® 310: it provides medium viscosity for optimal texture and mouthfeel (without affecting taste or color). It provides low shelf stability (freeze/ thaw stability), and high resistance to breakdown due to process stresses (high process stability).
