## Overview

Refined Iota Carrageenan is a premium, 100% food-grade vegan gelling agent extracted from red seaweed, certified kosher by the Orthodox Union. Ideal for molecular gastronomy and modernist cooking, it forms elastic gels especially in calcium-rich liquids like dairy. Cold soluble and heat activated at 80°C, it offers stability through freeze/thaw cycles and suits plant-based, gluten-free, and keto diets.

## Description

Description Iota Carrageenan is used as a gelling agent in molecular gastronomy. A natural hydrocolloid, carrageenan is a natural extract from specific red seaweed species that are farmed and processed. It is used as a suspending and emulsifying stablizer, thickener, binder and gelling agent. This iota type is standardized with sucrose. It is cold soluble and gellified at 80 degrees Celcius. Stirring will not cause any gelling formation. However, when the gel is broken, allowing it to rest will restructure the gel. It is usually used in water applications where a weak cohesive and elastic gel is required. Soluble in hot water medium at 140 F. Strongly gels in the presence of calcium ions. Stability in freeze/thaw process.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which one is used for marshmallows?**
A: I typically use gelatin for marshmallows but if you want to make them vegan your best bet is agar agar or iota, both are derived from seaweed

**Q: I use a liquid coffee creamer that is too runny for my taste. I would like to add something to thicken it up a little. Would this product work?**
A: Iota requires heat to activate. Lambda Carrageenan would be more appropriate.

**Q: Is this product manufactured in China?**
A: It is not

**Q: Where is it manufactured?**
A: This product is made in the US from domestic and/or imported ingredients

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It be doing the dessert work
*by Y***E on January 30, 2026*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Used for a shampoo bar recipe
*by J***D on July 26, 2020*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Holy Grail for cream-based whips!
*by M***O on March 7, 2017*

Welcome lost internet molecular gastronomist. Your whips not turning out right? Frustrating isn't it? Still having issues nailing that righteous dairy whip? THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT. Conclusion: The biggest, most dense, stable whipped cream ripping out of the siphon with amazing mouth feel! Details: After messing around with different starches, gums, versawhip 600k, etc etc etc. I just couldn't figure out how to get the perfect texture for my whips. The gums were OK, but too "wet". Versawhip 600K was not dense (think bubble-bath foam). But iota carrageenan... OH MY!!! Other than just whipped cream, it excels at various savory goat-cheese whips, and even egg-based holiday drinks (Tom & Jerry's... amazing by the way). For those applications, this is my holy grail. But what about in my home? This morning's coffee had salted caramel whipped cream on top: 1/4 teaspoon of iota in a pint of cream into the siphon with a 2 tablespoons of salted caramel. mix. seal. nitrous. done.
