Calcium chloride is primarily used in the Spherification process.

The ingredients used to make the spheres are as follows:

  • Sodium Alginate – An extract of seaweed used to thicken the liquid. Use 1% of the liquids weight.
  • Calcium Chloride – An extract of natural salt brine. Reacts with the Sodium Alginate to form the skin or outer of the sphere. Add 1 – 2% relative to weight of water. Ideal for use in spherification due to the high calcium content (36.1%).

We favour using a generic clear apple juice for the base of our caviar pearls. We can then flavour them with MSK flavour drops and colour them with liquid performance colours. This is because the process is highly sensitive and if we introduce too much acidity the spheres will not form.

Orders received after 4pm will normally be processed on the next working day.
