Agar Agar 30g Spiral

Agar Agar 30g by Spiral is a premium-quality plant-based gelling agent made from red algae. Also known as kanten, agar agar is a natural vegan alternative to gelatin and is widely used in Asian cuisine for creating firm, clear jellies, desserts, and for thickening soups, sauces, and puddings.

These flakes dissolve when heated and set firmly as they cool, delivering a clean, neutral flavour suitable for sweet or savoury recipes. Agar agar is also naturally gluten-free and low in calories, while providing beneficial minerals such as calcium and iron.
