BAKED GOODS

Acid phosphates are well-known leavening agents in dough. They react with bicarbonate of soda to produce a controlled release of gas, which enhances the volume, appearance and flavour of all types of cakes and pastries.

Our range of products has been developed to meet a variety of needs. Prayon monocalcium phosphates (MCPs) are used in short-order cooking (waffles, wafers, biscuits etc.) and in preparing leavening powders and self-raising flour, while for making cakes, sponge cakes and biscuits we recommend sodium acid pyrophosphates (SAPP). During the manufacturing process, SAPP can have a greater or lesser 'retardation' effect.

  1. Dough rate of reaction (DRR): percentage of CO2 available released by the bicarbonate of soda in the dough after 2 minutes of kneading (varies depending on the method used). For more details, see the specification sheet.
  2. Neutralisation value: number of kilos of bicarbonate of soda that will be neutralised (or converted into CO2) per 100 kg of acid phosphate.
