Holy Grail for cream-based whips!
Welcome lost internet molecular gastronomist. Your whips not turning out right? Frustrating isn't it? Still having issues nailing that righteous dairy whip? THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT. Conclusion: The biggest, most dense, stable whipped cream ripping out of the siphon with amazing mouth feel! Details: After messing around with different starches, gums, versawhip 600k, etc etc etc. I just couldn't figure out how to get the perfect texture for my whips. The gums were OK, but too "wet". Versawhip 600K was not dense (think bubble-bath foam). But iota carrageenan... OH MY!!! Other than just whipped cream, it excels at various savory goat-cheese whips, and even egg-based holiday drinks (Tom & Jerry's... amazing by the way). For those applications, this is my holy grail. But what about in my home? This morning's coffee had salted caramel whipped cream on top: 1/4 teaspoon of iota in a pint of cream into the siphon with a 2 tablespoons of salted caramel. mix. seal. nitrous. done.

Vegan Thickener!
This stuff totally rocks! Not only is it marketed in a cool way, it actually does what it's supposed to do. I love the packaging, it's slick, attractive, not overpackaged, but does have a zip-type closure because no one is going to use this much carrageenan in one recipe. I used it to make a non-dairy, cashew milk based, yogurt. It worked beautifully. I will definitely use this product, purchase again, and recommend to friends.

specialty ingredient
Quick delivery, thanks! Needed small amount of Iota Carrageenan for making marshmallows from Skye Michael Conroy's Non-Dairy Evolution cookbook. Along with Versawhip it worked perfectly to make fluffy, spongy marshmallows - vegan, without gelatin.

Used for a shampoo bar recipe
This was an ingredient in a recipe for a solid bar hair shampoo that I make. I wasn't familiar with this product and I'm not sure what it does in the recipe, but my shampoo bar turned out great!!

Really good product, but very pricey for the quantity provided. $11 for 50g is a bit steep
