Welcome to Ridgeland Moulding Starch , where great first impressions begin! Our high-quality native corn starch is expertly crafted to efficiently absorb moisture during the mogul process. With our custom manufacturing, you can achieve exceptional results that ensure your products stand out. Experience the difference with our reliable and effective starch solutions, tailored specifically for you! Why moulding starch is important Creates high detailed molds for shapes such as bears, worms, fruits, and vitamins Supports low-viscosity hot syrups that we would be nearly impossible in rigid molds Removes moisture from the deposited candy, improving texture and reducing drying times Can be recylced, reducing production costs Starch Mogul Process The starch mogul depositing process is a candy manufacturing method in which a liquid candy mixture is placed into pre-shaped cavities in a tray filled with native starch. The starch acts as a mold, allowing the candy to take shape as it sets. Once hardened, the candies can be easily removed from the starch. This technique is frequently used for creating gummy candies, edibles and vitamins, providing the flexibility to alter product shapes by simply changing the mold in the starch tray.

We understand your challenges and are committed to delivering Delicious solutions to sauces, marinades, baked good, beverages, proteins and snack foods. Raw vs. Processed Honey While there is no official U.S. federal definition of “raw” honey, it generally means honey that has not been heated or filtered. We often see or hear claims that raw honey is more nutritious or better for you, primarily because raw honey may contain small amounts of pollen grains that are often removed during processing or filtering. * Courtesy of the National Honey Board Why is Honey Filtered? Consumers prefer honey that is liquid and stays liquid for a long time. All honey crystallizes eventually. Suspended particles and fine air bubbles in honey contribute to faster crystallization. Filtering helps delay crystallization, helping the honey to remain liquid for a much longer period than unfiltered honey. Honey is filtered to remove extraneous solids that remain after the initial raw processing by the beekeeper. Honey that is filtered through more traditional methods is still honey, even if pollen has been removed along with other fine particles. * Courtesy of the National Honey Board How Sweet it is Why does the Unites States import so much honey annually? U.S. honey production is about 115 million pounds per year, far below the demand of over 688 million pounds. To meet this shortfall, honey is imported from various countries around the world to meet demand of this natural sweetener Does Sweetener Supply pack retail honey bears? We focus exclusively on the industrial and food service markets and do not pack any retail sizes What are some of the countries that export honey to the U.S? Argentina, Brazil, Canada, India, Vietnam and Ukraine, Uruguay, Taiwan and Turkey are among the leading suppliers to the United States What industries use the most honey? Cereal & Bars Baked Goods Sauces & Dressings Beverages & Tea What is honey pollen? Honey pollen consists of the minuscule grains that naturally mix into honey as bees gather nectar from various flowers. This pollen is not an added ingredient; rather, it's a natural by-product of the honey-making process. Additionally, honey pollen can serve as a valuable tool for identifying the source of the honey, revealing which plants the bees frequented during their foraging
