Why beef gelatin in Panna Cotta?

Beef gelatin provides the typical creamy-firm consistency and consists primarily of collagen protein. It provides amino acids such as glycine and proline - natural building blocks of protein that are part of a balanced diet.

Animal Based beef gelatin is Halal-certified and tasteless, making it ideal for Panna Cotta, gummy candies, desserts, and creams without altering the milky-creamy flavor.

  • Creamy-firm consistency Ensures the typical Panna Cotta texture
  • Rich in collagen protein With natural amino acids like glycine and proline
  • Halal certified Clearly declared and neutral in taste
