Custom Collagen Unflavored Bovine Gelatin is a high strength gelling and thickening agent made from beef collagen, supplied unflavored so it sets and stabilizes without changing the taste of the finished product. This is the 275 bloom, 40 mesh grade in a 50 lb bulk and wholesale format, made for production lines that want high gel strength paired with a finer, faster dissolving powder.


Gelatin is the backbone of gummies, marshmallows, jellies, mousses, panna cotta, aspics, and glazes. It melts near body temperature for that clean melt in the mouth release and sets again on cooling, making it one of the most versatile texturizers a commercial kitchen or manufacturer can keep on hand.


What This Product Is

This is a pure, unflavored bovine (beef source) gelatin in powder form. Gelatin is the protein recovered when collagen is broken down, and once dissolved in warm liquid and cooled it forms a clear, firm, thermoreversible gel. With no flavor, color, or aroma of its own, it builds texture without interfering with the flavors you are developing.


What 275 Bloom Means For You

Bloom measures gel strength, and at 275 this is a high bloom grade that sets firm and holds its shape cleanly. Higher bloom means you reach a target firmness with less gelatin, which makes 275 a strong fit for molded gummies, cut jellies, firm marshmallows, and confections that need a defined set and a satisfying chew.


What 40 Mesh Means For You

Mesh describes particle size, and at 40 mesh this is the finer of the two grinds offered for this bloom. A finer particle has more surface area, so it hydrates and dissolves more quickly and evenly, which can speed up blooming and help avoid undissolved specks in delicate or clear applications. It is offered alongside a coarser 30 mesh version so you can match the grind to your process.


Common Uses

  • Gummies, pastilles, and chewy confections
  • Marshmallows and nougat
  • Clear fruit jellies, gel layers, and mirror glazes
  • Mousses, panna cotta, custards, and Bavarian creams
  • Aspics and savory set dishes
  • Stabilizing whipped and aerated desserts

Why Buyers Choose It

This grade pairs high gel strength with a fast dissolving fine grind, which appeals to producers who want both a firm set and quick, clean hydration. The neutral unflavored profile keeps it usable across sweet and savory work, the high 275 bloom keeps dosing efficient, 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 foodservice 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.


Key Takeaways

  • Pure, unflavored beef source gelatin for gelling and thickening
  • High 275 bloom for a firm set and efficient dosing
  • Finer 40 mesh grind for faster, more even hydration
  • Ideal for gummies, marshmallows, clear jellies, and glazes
  • Neutral flavor for sweet and savory applications
  • 50 lb bulk and wholesale format with quantity pricing
  • Halal version available

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a finer 40 mesh gelatin dissolve better than a coarse grind?
A finer grind like 40 mesh has more surface area exposed to liquid, so it tends to hydrate and dissolve faster and more evenly than a coarse powder. This can be helpful in clear gels and smooth applications where any undissolved particles would show, though it also means the powder should be added carefully to avoid clumping on contact with water.
Why does gelatin clump when added to water, and how do I prevent it?
Clumping happens when the outside of a cluster of particles hydrates instantly and forms a gel shell that traps dry powder inside. Sprinkling the gelatin gradually over cold liquid rather than dumping it in, or pre mixing it with a little sugar before hydrating, helps the particles separate and bloom evenly, which matters more with fine grinds.
Will 275 bloom gelatin set clear enough for mirror glazes and layered jellies?
High bloom gelatin can produce a firm, glossy set well suited to mirror glazes and clean gel layers, and full dissolving is the key to clarity. Straining the bloomed mixture and making sure no particles remain undissolved gives the clearest result, which is one reason a finer mesh is sometimes preferred for these applications.
How long does gelatin need to bloom before heating?
Powdered gelatin is typically sprinkled over cold liquid and left to absorb for several minutes until it swells and softens, after which it is gently warmed to dissolve fully. Rushing this step or heating before the powder has hydrated can leave grainy bits, so allowing it to fully bloom first gives a smoother finished gel.
Is there a halal version of this bovine gelatin for certified production runs?
A halal version of this product is available in addition to the standard SKU. Operations with halal requirements should request that version specifically rather than the standard one when placing a wholesale order.
