Gum tragacanth is a natural gum extracted from the roots of the Astragalus plant, prized for its ability to enhance the elasticity and workability of sugar paste and florist paste. When added to sugar paste or florist paste, gum tragacanth helps to strengthen the paste, making it more durable and easier to shape and mold.

Its smooth texture makes it easy to incorporate into your sugar paste or florist paste, ensuring a seamless and effortless decorating experience.
In addition to its use in sugarcraft, gum tragacanth also has various other applications in the culinary and pharmaceutical industries. It is commonly used as a thickening agent in soups, sauces, and dressings, as well as a stabilizer in ice cream and other frozen desserts. In the pharmaceutical industry, gum tragacanth is used as a binder and emulsifier in tablets and ointments.
Elevate your cake decorating projects with Gum Tragacanth. Whether you're a professional baker or a passionate home cook, this versatile ingredient will help you create stunning sugar flowers, decorations, and figurines that will impress and delight your guests.
