Formulation Guidelines

  • Easy to use. Combine emulsifier with the oil phase and heat until phase is melted and homogeneous. Add to hot water phase and mix with conventional mixer (propeller or paddle) at high speed until emulsion is formed. Cool with medium speed until pour temp (40°C or lower).
  • Lab results show homogenization does not negatively affect the emulsifier and can be used as needed for complex and stabilizers.
  • Need to increase the oil to emulsifier ration beyond 3:1? This is attainable by using additional support thickeners and stabilizers.

Natural Emulsification

Formulating natural emulsions are no longer cost prohibitive or difficult with Kostol NatureMuls. This peg-free emulsifier was created by Koster Keunen scientist and starts with plant-based waxes and lipids. It has the ability to support the entire system as the only emulsifier you require, or choose to use it as the primary emulsifier or co-emulsifier for specific textures and bounce.

“This emulsifier checks all the boxes for my job. It is me preferred emulsifier when formulating natural because it is so dependable. I find all levels of Kostol NatureMuls provides a fantastic feel and different percentages contributes to the sensorial attributes of the emulsion.”
