Overview

E503 - Ammonium carbonates

Ammonium carbonates (E503) are raising agents used in baking, known to many bakers as “baker’s ammonia” or “hartshorn.” They make thin, dry baked goods light and crisp by releasing gases when heated, then leaving almost no residue.

E510 - Ammonium chloride

Ammonium chloride (E510) is an inorganic salt used in foods for its sharp, salty taste and its ability to control acidity. It is best known for giving “salmiak” or salty licorice its signature flavor, but it also has technical uses in some baked goods and beverages. It is authorized as a food additive in the European Union when meeting strict purity rules.
