Coolinario Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) Powder – Tylose Powder, Food Grade Thickener & Stabilizer for Baking, Beverages & Ice Cream

Coolinario Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) Powder is a high-quality, food-grade thickener and stabilizer designed for home cooks and professional kitchens alike. When added to beverages, sauces, and dairy-based desserts, it helps you achieve a consistent thickness without altering flavor, delivering a smooth, natural mouthfeel that guests will notice.

How it supports your recipes

In everyday use, CMC acts as a versatile viscosity enhancer. It creates a uniform body that prevents separation in salad dressings and fruit syrups, while also aiding smooth textures in blends and frozen desserts.

• Thickens & stabilizes beverages, sauces, and dairy products for consistent texture and reduced separation.
• Maintains a natural mouthfeel without overpowering flavors, even in fruit syrups and mixed drinks.

Great for gluten-free baking

Gluten-free bakery often benefits from stabilizers that mimic structure. CMC helps with elasticity and moisture retention, supporting a softer crumb and less crumbling in bread, cakes, and pastries.

• Improves crumb reliability and moisture retention in gluten-free breads and cakes.
• Supports a softer, more uniform slice without sacrificing taste.

In frozen desserts

In ice creams, sorbets, and frozen yogurts, CMC helps minimize ice crystal formation, delivering a creamier mouthfeel and more even texture from scoop to scoop. It also contributes to steadier shelf life by keeping mixtures uniform.

• Reduces ice crystallization for creamier frozen treats.
• Helps maintain uniform texture during storage, aiding shelf stability.

Usage and storage tips

Easy to use—dissolves quickly in hot or cold liquids. For thickening, aim for about 0.3–1% by weight; when baking, mix with dry ingredients first to ensure even distribution and consistent results.

• Dissolves readily in liquids for smooth incorporation.
• Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to prevent clumping.
