Sodium Bicarbonate Food Grade

Sodium Bicarbonate Food Grade is white crystal powder, non-toxic, salty in taste, used as leavening ingredient in most baked foods. When combined with an acidic ingredient present in the batter, a chemical reaction occurs under high temperatures. Carbon dioxide bubbles, which promote rising in cakes, cookies, and other baked goods, are produced.

Sodium bicarbonate is an alkaline compound and, as such, it neutralizes acidic substances. In some cooking applications, sodium bicarbonate helps to reduce the bitter flavors associated with acidic compounds. By reducing the amount of acid present in the final product, the overall flavor can be enhanced.

Accounting for almost 45% of the overall market share before 2021, the processed food segment is expected to drive the global sodium bicarbonate market further. Growing demand for convenience foods is a key factor driving the growth of the sodium bicarbonate market. Its ability to neutralize acidic conditions and maintain a stable PH level in food drives the use of food grade sodium bicarbonate in baked products like bread, biscuits, and cakes. Furthermore, baking soda manufacturers benefit from sodium bicarbonate’s low environmental impact and manufacturing costs.

Storage and Precaution

Sodium Bicarbonate should be stored in a cool, dry place and far away from any source of heat. It begins to decompose slowly at 50’C, releasing carbon dioxide gas.
The bags should not be stacked more than 8 layers in height. A suitable distance from external surfaces should be maintained during rainy seasons.
It is liable to lumping if exposed to dampness or subjected to high pressure.
The storing place should be free of objectionable odors, as the product is extremely likely to pick up odors.
Wash thoroughly after handling. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist or gas. Avoid breathing vapors from heated material. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Application of Sodium Bicarbonate Food Grade

1.BISCUITS/ COOKIES

In presence of moisture, Sodakarb reacts with acidic ingredients to liberate carbon dioxide (CO2) and decompose into sodium salt & water. These CO2 bubbles act as the open and porous structure of the biscuit.
Sodium Bicarbonate also acts towards adjusting the pH of the dough.

2.BREADS/ CAKES/ MUFFINS

For soft dough products, acts as carbonation agent to provide leavening
Often used in conjunction with one or more leavening acids to produce the desired reaction rate and finished pH.
Aids in surface browning

3.JAGGERY

Used as clarifying agents to improve the colour profile and jaggery consistency

4.EFFERVESCENT TABLETS/ POWDERS

Used with an acidic agent, such as citric or tartaric acid, to cause a reaction that produces carbon dioxide (CO2)

5.MEAT PROCESSING

Used for meat tenderizing purposes
Moisture retention action

6.BEVERAGES

Carbonated drinks
Oral rehydration and energy drinks

7.PROCESSED FOOD

Used in manufacturing of ready mixes, noodles, spice mixes
