Custom Collagen Unflavored Porcine Gelatin is a very soft, light set gelling and thickening agent made from pork collagen, supplied unflavored so it sets and stabilizes without changing the taste of the finished product. 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 porcine (pork 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, thermoreversible gel. With no flavor, color, or aroma of its own, it sets and thickens without changing the taste you are building, and porcine gelatin is well regarded for clean, clear results.


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. Porcine gelatin is valued for clean, clear, neutral results across sweet and savory applications.


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.


Key Takeaways

  • Pure, unflavored pork 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
  • Neutral flavor for sweet and savory applications
  • 50 lb bulk and wholesale format with quantity pricing

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a fine grind help when dissolving small amounts quickly?
A finer 40 mesh has more surface area, so it hydrates and dissolves faster, which helps when a small amount needs 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 porcine gelatin be used in savory cooking?
Porcine gelatin works in savory applications such as aspics, terrines, and adding body to sauces and stocks. Its neutral flavor builds structure and a silky texture without sweetness, and a soft bloom gives gentle body where a firm gel would be too rigid.
What causes uneven setting across a batch?
Uneven setting usually comes from incomplete dissolving, uneven cooling, or pouring before the mixture is fully combined. Dissolving the gelatin completely, stirring to distribute it, and cooling the batch uniformly help the whole batch set consistently.
How do I determine the right gelatin dose for a new recipe?
The dose depends on target firmness, liquid volume, and bloom strength, so starting from a known ratio and bench testing is the dependable method. Lower blooms need more powder for a given firmness, and sugar and acid shift the result, so a small test confirms the rate before scaling up.
Is gelatin strength affected by long term storage?
Dry gelatin holds its strength for a long time when sealed and kept dry, but humidity exposure can weaken the set and cause clumping or odor pickup. Checking for those signs and confirming any best by date on the specification helps judge whether a bag is still good.
