What is Apple Pectin?

Pectin is a polysaccharide starch found in the cell walls of fruits and vegetables. Found in everything from the rinds and seeds to the skin and membranes, firmer fruits (think apples, pears, quinces) offer the highest amounts of pectin. Delicate and tender fruits (raspberries, strawberries, etc.) have a much lower amount. Like Gelatin, Pectin provides many of the same gelling properties, however, whereas Gelatin is made from animals, Pectin is derived solely from plants. Whether it’s liquid or powdered, Apple pectin is a 100% vegan option perfect for creating all your favorites, from jellies and jams to gummy candies and tarts.
