Nutritional Information
Agar agar is generally known as a seaweed product that is naturally low in calories and contains soluble fiber. It is used in such small quantities per recipe that its nutritional contribution to a dessert is minimal. For exact values and allergen statements, please check the Nutrition Facts panel printed on the package.


How to Use
• Whisk the powder into cold milk or juice, then bring to a gentle boil for one to two minutes so it fully activates
• Make rose or tutti frutti falooda jelly cubes for kulfi falooda nights
• Set mango, coconut or caramel custard puddings in molds for Eid and Diwali parties
• Firm up fruit jellies, panna cotta style desserts and layered agar cakes
• Use it to thicken vegan jams and fruit spreads


Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute agar powder for gelatin one to one?
Not exactly. Agar is stronger than gelatin, so you usually need less. Start with the quantity suggested on the pack and test a small batch first.
Why did my agar dessert not set?
The most common reason is that the liquid was not boiled long enough. Agar needs to reach a full simmer to activate, and very acidic fruit can also weaken the set.
Does agar melt at room temperature?
Once set, agar desserts stay firm at room temperature, which makes them a great choice for outdoor potlucks and buffet tables.
Add a pack of A1 Agar Agar to your next dessert order and start experimenting.
