Agar agar best for making my vegan Turkish Delight

Your agar agar is distinctly different in taste from other brands I have used to make my vegan Turkish Delight - it is a WINNER. The other brands have an after taste that is unpleasant- I don’t know how to describe the taste other than to say it taste like a chemical.

Thank you so much for your comments Susie. We have had this feedback from other customers - we work hard to ensure no/absolute minimal processing of our seaweeds, to keep them as mother nature intended! Glad you are finding it works for you too!

Premium Agar Powder

I have used Pacific Harvest Agar Powder in my gluten free cooking for several years wherever gelatine was required in the recipe, The results have always been satisfactory. It was very easy to order online and I received the goods very quickly.

As a first time user, I think the agar powder is great!

Agar was recommended to me for its health benefits and I’m finding the tasteless powder is very convenient to use. I was particularly impressed with how easy it was to order and how prompt the delivery was.
