Louis Francois Fish Gelatin Powder 200 Bloom is a protein-based gelling agent derived from acid-treated fish skin, offering a clean, neutral-flavored, and odourless solution for professional pastry, confectionery, and savoury applications. With a gel strength of 200 Bloom, it provides a soft to medium-firm gel texture ideal for mousses, aspics, jellies, and marshmallows.
This white, fine powder is easy to hydrate and dissolve, performing efficiently in recipes that require clarity, elasticity, or stable aeration. Fish gelatin is widely appreciated for its dietary versatility—commonly used in pescatarian-friendly, halal-conscious, or non-mammalian ingredient formulations. Compared to similar products, Louis Francois’s formulation offers faster solubility, more reliable hydration, and a smoother finished texture.
Incorporation:
Swelling (Blooming): Sprinkle the gelatin into cold water (approx. 5x its weight), stir gently, and let sit for at least 1 hour.
Melting: Melt the bloomed gelatin at around 55°C, without exceeding 80°C, until fully dissolved. Stir until smooth with no particles.
Storage: Refrigerate gelatin solution with film contact and use within 24 hours.
Panna Cottas, Mousses, and Creamy Desserts: Delicate set with a clean melt-in-the-mouth feel
Jellied Inserts & Aspics: Produces a soft gel ideal for plated elements or molded structures
Confectionery: Functions well in marshmallows, jelly candies, and chewy sweets
Foams & Aerated Preparations: Supports structure and elasticity in whipped gels
