Kappa is a gelling agent made from carrageenan, a natural hydrocolloid from red algae.
It is a powdered ingredient used to create firm, rigid, and brittle gels from liquids, and it is suitable for vegan products.
Kappa gel is activated by heat (above 140°F/60°C), sets quickly, can withstand temperatures up to 140°F/60°C once set, and is reversible with heat but not freezable.
