Custom Collagen Unflavored Porcine Gelatin is a versatile 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 225 bloom, 40 mesh grade in a 50 lb bulk and wholesale format, pairing a versatile mid to high gel strength with a finer, faster dissolving powder.


Gelatin builds the texture in gummies, marshmallows, jellies, mousses, panna cotta, glazes, and aspics. It melts near body temperature for a clean release on the palate and resets on cooling, making it one of the most reliable texturizers 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, firm, 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 225 Bloom Means For You

Bloom measures gel strength, and at 225 this is a solid mid to high bloom grade that balances a firm set with everyday versatility. It is firm enough for confectionery that needs to hold its shape, yet flexible enough to work across a wide range of desserts, which makes it a practical middle ground in the bloom range.


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

  • 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 combines a versatile 225 bloom set with a fast dissolving fine grind, suiting producers who want clean hydration and broad application coverage. Porcine gelatin is valued for clean, clear, neutral results across sweet and savory work.


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
  • Mid to high 225 bloom that balances firmness and versatility
  • 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

Frequently Asked Questions

Does mesh size change the finished texture at all?
Mesh affects how the powder hydrates and dissolves, not the final set firmness, which is governed by bloom and dose. The finer 40 mesh dissolves faster and helps avoid grainy bits, but two grinds of the same bloom set to the same firmness once fully dissolved.
Can gelatin add body to sauces and savory dishes?
Gelatin adds a silky body and richness to sauces, gravies, and braising liquids, which is why long simmered stocks feel fuller. A small amount of dissolved gelatin lends that mouthfeel without a firm set, and its neutral flavor keeps the savory profile intact.
What happens if gelatin is added to boiling liquid?
Brief contact with hot liquid is fine for dissolving, but holding gelatin at a hard boil for a long time can degrade it and weaken the set. The safer method is to bloom in cold liquid, then warm gently until clear without prolonged boiling.
How do I store opened bulk gelatin to keep it fresh?
Reseal opened gelatin and keep it cool, dry, and away from strong odors, since the powder absorbs both moisture and aromas. Decanting working amounts into a sealed container while keeping the main supply closed helps protect its performance over time.
Is this gelatin a single ingredient product?
Pure unflavored gelatin is a single ingredient consisting only of gelatin from collagen, with no additives in the base powder. Buyers needing ingredient and processing documentation for labeling should confirm the details against the supplier specification.
