Custom Collagen Unflavored Bovine Gelatin is a very soft, light set gelling and thickening agent made from beef collagen, supplied unflavored so it sets and stabilizes without affecting taste. This is the 100 bloom, 40 mesh grade in a 50 lb bulk and wholesale format, the lowest gel strength in the range paired with a finer, faster dissolving powder.


Gelatin at this strength is used to add gentle body, smoothness, and a very soft set to creams, fillings, sauces, and cold preparations rather than to build firm, shaped gels. It melts near body temperature for a clean release on the palate and resets on cooling, making it a dependable texturizer in commercial food production.


What This Product Is

This is a pure, unflavored bovine (beef source) gelatin in powder form. Gelatin is the protein produced when collagen is broken down, and once dissolved in warm liquid and cooled it forms a clear, thermoreversible gel. With no flavor, color, or aroma of its own, it sets and thickens without changing the taste you are building.


What 100 Bloom Means For You

Bloom measures gel strength, and at 100 this is the lowest bloom grade in the range, giving a very soft, light set. It is used where the aim is gentle body, smoothness, and a tender hold rather than a firm gel, making it suited to light creams, soft fillings, and adding a silky quality to preparations.


What 40 Mesh Means For You

Mesh describes particle size, and at 40 mesh this is the finer of the two grinds. A finer particle dissolves faster and more evenly thanks to greater surface area, which can speed blooming and reduce the chance of undissolved specks in clear or delicate applications. It is offered alongside a coarser 30 mesh version so you can match the grind to your process.


Common Uses

  • Light creams and soft fillings
  • Adding body and smoothness to sauces
  • Very soft set desserts
  • Stabilizing whipped and aerated preparations
  • Cold preparations needing a silky texture
  • Applications where a firm gel is not wanted

Why Buyers Choose It

This grade pairs the softest 100 bloom set with a fast dissolving fine grind, suiting light creams and smooth sauces that benefit from clean, even hydration. The neutral unflavored profile works across sweet and savory applications, and as a beef source gelatin it suits operations that need a non porcine option.


Bulk and Wholesale Format

This grade ships in a 50 lb bulk format priced for wholesale buyers, suited to manufacturers, confectioners, and high volume kitchens rather than retail needs. Quantity pricing is available for larger wholesale orders.


Halal Availability

A halal version of this bovine gelatin is available and can be requested as a separate option from the standard wholesale SKU.

  • Pure, unflavored beef source gelatin for gelling and thickening
  • Lowest 100 bloom for a very soft, light set
  • Finer 40 mesh grind for faster, more even hydration
  • Ideal for light creams, smooth sauces, and very soft sets

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a fine grind help when dissolving small amounts of gelatin quickly?
A finer 40 mesh has more surface area, so it hydrates and dissolves faster, which helps when you need a small amount to come together smoothly and quickly. Paired with the soft 100 bloom, it suits light preparations where speed and a clean, lump free finish both matter.
Can gelatin be used in savory applications, not just desserts?
Gelatin is widely used in savory work, including aspics, terrines, glazed meats, and adding body to sauces and stocks. Its neutral flavor means it builds structure and a silky texture without adding sweetness, and a soft bloom gives gentle body where a firm gel would be too rigid.
What causes gelatin to set unevenly across a batch?
Uneven setting usually comes from incomplete dissolving, uneven cooling, or pouring before the mixture is fully mixed. Making sure the gelatin is completely dissolved, stirring to distribute it evenly, and cooling the batch uniformly all help the whole batch set consistently rather than firmer in some spots.
How do I know how much gelatin a recipe needs?
The amount depends on the target firmness, the volume of liquid, and the bloom strength, so the dependable method is to start from a known ratio and bench test. Lower blooms need more powder for a given firmness, and ingredients like acid and sugar shift the result, so a small test confirms the rate before scaling up.
Is a halal version of this 100 bloom gelatin available?
A halal version of this product is offered alongside the standard SKU. Operations with halal requirements should request that version specifically when ordering rather than the standard wholesale product.
