VITAP 22 is a high-quality modified tapioca starch (Acetylated Distarch Adipate – E1422) widely valued for its excellent performance in food manufacturing. Known for its versatility, it functions as a thickener, stabiliser, and bulking agent, making it a highly functional ingredient across a wide range of culinary and industrial applications.
Functional Benefits of VITAP 22
1. Thickener, Stabiliser, and Bulking Agent
VITAP 22 provides reliable thickening and stability in many products. Its key attributes include:
• Enhanced viscosity.
• Heat, shear, and acid stability.
• Freeze–thaw resistance.
• Smooth, consistent textures.
This makes it ideal for:
• Fruit fillings.
• Sauces and soups.
• Dairy products (drinking yoghurt, set yoghurt).
• Dessert mixes.
• Jams and spreads.
2. Emulsion Stabilisation
While not a primary emulsifier, VITAP 22 helps stabilise emulsions by improving texture and viscosity.
In products like mayonnaise or margarine, it supports:
• Improved body and creaminess.
• Reduced separation.
• Enhanced stability during processing and storage.
3. Partial Replacement for Gelatin
VITAP 22 can serve as a plant-based alternative in applications that require thickening or a lightly set texture, such as:
• Pudding powders.
• Drinking yoghurt.
• Dessert mixes.
It is important to note that it does not replicate the elastic gel structure of gelatin used in gummies or firm gels.
How to Use VITAP 22
Suggested starting dosages:
• Drinking yoghurt: 0.5 – 1.0%
• Set yoghurt: 1.5 – 2.5%
Important: Always dry blend with sugar before adding to liquid to prevent lumping and ensure smooth hydration.
Shelf-Life & Storage
• Shelf-life: 24 months (when properly stored).
• Store in a clean, dry area at ambient room temperature.
• Keep away from strong odours.
• Maintain product in sealed packaging.
Certifications
• Halaal Certified.
• Kosher Certified.
• Vegan Suitable (no animal-derived materials).
Conclusion
VITAP 22 is a reliable and multifunctional modified starch that enhances the texture, stability, and overall performance of a wide variety of foods. Whether used in dairy, fruit fillings, sauces, or dessert applications, it delivers consistent, high-quality results. With its plant-based profile and broad functionality, VITAP 22 is an excellent addition to both commercial production and innovative food development.
