Why is the Production of Pectin Gummies Inseparable from Electric Steam Generators?

When it comes to pectin gummies, I believe everyone is quite familiar with them. They can aid digestion. Pectin gummies offer advantages such as soft texture, fine structure, refreshing taste, and a long shelf life. Among the global sales of soft candies, pectin gummies account for a significant share and are a well-loved type of candy worldwide, particularly popular among children and young adults. However, the processing technology for pectin gummies is relatively demanding, and their production usually relies on the assistance of electric steam generators.

The prerequisite for making pectin gummies is pectin, which must be fully dissolved before being added—first, the pectin-sugar mixture is dispersed in water. To ensure complete dissolution, the mixture can be brought to a boil. The production process is relatively complex because pectin requires boiling, and during this boiling process, extremely high temperature stability is needed, which necessitates the use of a steam generator.

Typically, the boiling process for pectin has strict temperature requirements. If the temperature is too low, it takes a long time to boil; if it is too high, the pectin may scorch. Using an electric steam generator for boiling makes temperature control much easier—simply adjust the power to achieve the required steam temperature.

Through continuous heating by the electric steam generator, the temperature of the pectin gradually increases. Once the pectin melts and reaches a boil, moisture evaporates, and the pectin concentrates. After most of the residual water in the solution is removed, a pectin solution of the desired concentration is obtained. This pectin solution is then blended with glucose syrup to produce pectin gummies of the corresponding sweetness.
