To develop a gelled texture, the formulator can use endogenous gelling agents (for example, pectin from fruit cell walls when making gelled jam) or may need to add gelling additives. A range of different agents, most of them polymeric but also particulate, are available to formulators (table 2 ). Their use and relative physicochemistry are discussed in paragraphs 3 ...
