Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate
Wednesday, April 25th, 2007
Polyglycerol polyricinoleate, commonly known as PGPR, is being seen
increasingly often in commercially-produced chocolate. The good people of
Wikipedia describe it as “a yellowish, viscous liquid comprised of
polyglycerol esters of polycondensed fatty acids from castor oil. It may
also be polyglycerol esters of dimerized fatty acids of soya bean oil.”
Now doesn’t that sound delicious? Serve me up a bowlful, please!
