Custom Collagen Unflavored Porcine Gelatin is a high strength 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 275 bloom, 40 mesh grade in a 50 lb bulk and wholesale format, pairing high gel strength with a finer, faster dissolving powder.


Gelatin is the workhorse behind gummies, marshmallows, jellies, mousses, panna cotta, glazes, and aspics. 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 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 builds texture without interfering with the flavors you are developing, and porcine gelatin is well regarded for clean, clear results.


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. 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 a firm 275 bloom set with a fast dissolving fine grind, suiting producers who want both strength and quick, clean hydration. Porcine gelatin is valued for clean, clear, neutral results, an advantage in bright, transparent confectionery.


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.


Key Takeaways

  • Pure, unflavored pork 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

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose the 40 mesh version of 275 bloom porcine gelatin?
The 40 mesh grind dissolves faster and more evenly than the coarse version, which helps in smooth or clear products and on quicker lines. Both grinds set to the same firmness at 275 bloom, so the choice is about hydration speed and handling rather than texture.
Does fully dissolving gelatin matter more in clear products?
Yes, any undissolved particle is far more visible in a transparent gel than in an opaque one. A fine grind that dissolves completely, along with straining, helps keep clear porcine jellies and glazes looking clean and glassy.
How do I scale a successful small batch to full production?
Gelatin scales fairly linearly by ratio, so the dose per unit of liquid carries from a bench test to a larger batch. Mixing and cooling behave differently at scale, so confirming the first full run and adjusting hold times is wise rather than assuming an exact copy.
What causes a rubbery texture in a finished gummy?
An overly rubbery gummy usually means too much gelatin or too high a bloom for the intended chew. Reducing the dose or choosing a slightly lower bloom softens the bite, which is best fine tuned with a small test batch.
