Custom Collagen Unflavored Porcine Gelatin is a 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 125 bloom, 40 mesh grade in a 50 lb bulk and wholesale format, pairing a low gel strength with a finer, faster dissolving powder.


Gelatin gives light body and a soft set to creams, fillings, mousses, soft jellies, and aerated desserts, and adds smoothness to sauces and cold preparations. 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 125 Bloom Means For You

Bloom measures gel strength, and at 125 this is a low bloom grade that gives a soft, light set. Low bloom gelatin is used where you want gentle body, a tender hold, and a delicate, melting texture rather than firmness, making it a good fit for light creams, soft fillings, and adding smoothness.


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 mousses
  • Soft fillings and dessert layers
  • Soft set jellies
  • Adding body and smoothness to sauces
  • Stabilizing whipped and aerated desserts
  • Cold preparations needing gentle body

Why Buyers Choose It

This grade pairs a soft 125 bloom set with a fast dissolving fine grind, suiting light creams and smooth fillings 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
  • Low 125 bloom for a soft, light set
  • Finer 40 mesh grind for faster, more even hydration
  • Ideal for light creams, soft fillings, and smoothing sauces
  • Neutral flavor for sweet and savory applications
  • 50 lb bulk and wholesale format with quantity pricing

Frequently Asked Questions

Why pick a fine 40 mesh at a low 125 bloom?
A finer grind dissolves quickly and evenly, keeping light, delicate products smooth and free of grainy bits. Paired with a low 125 bloom, it suits gentle creams and fillings where both a soft set and a clean, lump free texture matter.
Can gelatin reduce weeping in refrigerated desserts?
A small amount of gelatin binds free water and helps hold moisture in place, reducing weeping in custards and creams. The dose has to be balanced so it stabilizes without turning the texture rubbery, which usually takes a quick test of the formula.
How do I get a perfectly clear result in a transparent product?
Fully dissolving the gelatin and avoiding trapped air or undissolved particles are the keys to clarity. Blooming first, warming gently to dissolve, and straining the mixture before setting all help produce a clean, transparent gel.
Does the way I add gelatin affect lumps?
Yes, adding dry gelatin directly to warm liquid invites clumping. Sprinkling it over cold liquid to bloom first, then warming, lets the particles separate and hydrate evenly, which a fine grind makes even smoother.
Is porcine gelatin used outside of desserts?
Porcine gelatin appears in savory aspics and glazes, beverage fining, and as a body builder in sauces, beyond its dessert uses. Its neutral flavor and clarity make it versatile across many applications where a clean gelling agent is needed.
