Popular questions
  1. How to make caramel?

    E150 caramel color is made by heating sugars (e.g., glucose syrup, sucrose, or dextrose) under controlled conditions, sometimes with food-grade acids/alkalis and, for some classes, ammonia and/or sulfites, to form brown coloring compounds. This is an industrial process distinct from making caramel candy at home.

  2. How to make caramel sauce?

    Caramel sauce is a kitchen recipe—cook sugar to a deep amber, then carefully whisk in cream and butter; it’s different from E150 caramel color. The additive is produced industrially by controlled heat treatment of sugars to make a coloring, not a sauce.

  3. What is caramel made of?

    E150 caramel color is made from carbohydrates (sugars) heated to form complex brown polymers; depending on the class (E150a–d), acids/alkalis, ammonia, and/or sulfites may be used during processing. It contains no dairy or butter unless added in a finished food.

  4. How to pronounce caramel?

    Both “KAR-uh-mel” and “KAR-mel” are widely accepted pronunciations.

  5. Can dogs have caramel?

    Small amounts of caramel color used in pet foods aren’t considered toxic to dogs, but caramel candies or sauces are not recommended due to sugar and risk of stomach upset, dental issues, and weight gain. Avoid any caramel products sweetened with xylitol, which is dangerous for dogs.

  1. How much ethyl maltol?

    It’s very potent; in foods it’s typically used at tens of ppm (about 0.001–0.01%), and JECFA’s acceptable daily intake is 0–2 mg/kg body weight per day.

  2. Ejuice ethyl maltol how much?

    Use only tiny amounts; many formulators add about 0.25–1% of a 10% ethyl maltol-in-propylene glycol solution (roughly 0.025–0.1% EM, or ~250–1000 ppm), as higher levels can mute flavors.

  3. Ejuice how to use ethyl maltol?

    Dissolve it in propylene glycol to make ~10% solution, then add sparingly to the flavor base and adjust after steeping; start very low because too much can flatten flavors.

  4. Ethyl maltol what is it?

    A synthetic flavor enhancer (E637) that provides sweet, caramelized “cotton candy” notes and boosts perceived sweetness; it’s an approved flavoring substance used at very low levels.

  5. How much ethyl maltol in e liquid?

    Typically 0.025–0.1% ethyl maltol by weight (e.g., 0.25–1% of a 10% solution) is enough for e-liquids; exceeding this often mutes or overly candies the mix.
