TIC Pretested® Agar Agar 100 is a high gel strength 100 mesh extract from the Gracilaria species of red seaweed. The coarse mesh characteristic improves dispersibility. In high sugar systems such as icings and glazes, Agar 100 holds water thereby reducing the tendency of the glaze to chip, crack, or weep and reducing sugar crystallization.
