Introduction:
Tartaric acid is a white crystalline organic acid that occurs naturally in many plants, most notably in grapes.
Its salt, potassium bitartrate, commonly known as cream of tartar, develops naturally in the process of
winemaking. It is commonly mixed with sodium bicarbonate and is sold as baking powder used as a
leavening agent in food preparation. The acid itself is added to foods as an antioxidant and to impart its
distinctive sour taste.
Application:
Food Industry
– As acidifier and natural preservative for marmalades, ice cream, jellies, juices, preserves, and beverages.
– As effervescent for carbonated water.
– As emulsifier and preservative in the bread-making industry and in the preparation of candies and sweets.
