Naturally versatile and full of functional potential, gelatin is a sustainable ingredient solution suitable for use in everything from clean-label gummy confectionery to eco-friendly pharmaceutical delivery forms. In Frankfurt, Rousselot showcased its latest Simogel gelatin solution which enables the production of soft gummies and even centre-filled gummies, without traditional starch depositing. Also known as “gummy caps” (pictured), these liquid-centre gummies enable high API (active pharmaceutical ingredients) content, accurately dosed vitamins or minerals for example, in a format that is attractive for people of all ages. Utilizing the Simogel starch-free production process, these gummies or gummy caps can be hygienically manufactured at an industry-leading setting time of just 15 min, boosting ROI without compromising product safety or efficacy. Attendees could try a range of Simogel-based application samples, including gummy caps for immunity support, pain relief and sore throats.
