Fumaric Acid

Fumaric acid is a naturally occurring food acidulent found in humans, mammals, and some plant life. In the Food Ingredients industry, Fumaric acid is multifunctional. It can be used as a substitute for tartaric acid or citric acid.

Fumeric acid can also be used to keep moisture from hardening food powders such as baking powder, cake mixes, etc.

When used in place of citric acid, a much lower amount of fumaric acid can be used because of its high rate of sourness. In fact, fumaric acid is often very cost effective because less of it needs to be used when compared to citric acid or other similar acidulents.

What is Fumaric Acid Used In?

• Hard, sour candies
• Bread
• Tortillas
• Fruit drinks
• Wine
• Jellies, Jams, and more…

Because it's so versatile, fumaric acid is a good choice for a variety of food products. For candies and sweets, the "fruity" tart and sour taste goes a long way. For baking powders and products, fumaric acid keeps mixes from clumping and hardening, even at high altitudes.
