I still haven't figured anything out about the pectin but have been having good luck with using about 3 tablespoons of non-fat dry milk powder. I wouldn't think this should contribute to bad cholesterol as it is made only from skim milk.

These pectins are not interchangeable. This one is a low or no sugar pectin.I have tried and had many failed attempts at interchanging pectins and to no avail. So....I would stick with the classic pectin if that is what you are accustomed to.I do love the low or no sugar ones however. : )

I found it in a few places on the net, one of which is houzz.com. Regardless of specific scent it reads: Ingredients: Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Distilled Water, Natural Aroma Oil, Dextrin, Pectin, Arabic Gum.

Label contains no information regarding source of gelatin. I suggest contacting the manufacturer directly to answer your questions.

Well.... I see where the colors and flavors are natural, per the listed ingredients (purple carrot juice concentrate, blueberry and carrot concentrates, annatto extract -- from seeds of the achiote tree). Polydextrose would appear to be the primary fiber source. That is a soluble fiber synthesized from dextrose (glucose) plus about 10% sorbitol and 1% citric acid. It's FDA approved for many uses in foods. I've messaged the maker to see what other info they might share. Allen

This actually makes a liquid pectin. It has formulas for creating your own recipes too. I think this is a great product.

Classic pectin has to be cooked - it's best when making jams and jellies that will be sealed in jars. Instant pectin is great for small batches or for jams and jellies that will be made and stored in the fridge or freezer, and eaten within the recommended time. Since I like using stevia or just the fruit's sweetness, I like using instant pectin. I also use instant pectin to make my own salad dressings that are sugar-free. I hope this helps!

The answer to your question is found on the label. Just peel back the label and you will find fruits and sugar ratios. Normallyit is 1 2/3 cups fruit to 2/3 cup of sugar and 2 Tablespoons of instant Pectin.

I have never made jelly or jam with low sugar substitutes. Pectin is a binding agent for fruit and sugar. I would test this making a small batch and waiting 24 hours to see if it jells.

Beta glucan...you can find a more complete description on the internet. It is really a good product.

It's freezer jam pectin. I LOVE it. So much better than the high sugar pectins. But I wouldn't use it for cooked jams. Have you ever made freezer jam? So easy and so good!

I wish to avoid powdered milk products after what I read in _Real Food: What to Eat and Why_ by Nina Planck. She explains that dried milk is one of the biggest contributors of bad cholesterol in our diets, because of the oxidation of the fats. Anyone figure anything else out about the pectin?

Nelly, it's made with pure citrus pectinand is activated by the calcium powder. I love it because you use very little sugaror sweetener to make your jams and jellies. You taste the fruit not a lot of sugar. This is a great product. Hope this helps. Anita
