Levair

Levair from Innophos is the original sodium aluminium phosphate, acidic and is a slow/heat reactive leavening acid. It can be used in a wide range of bakery applications by itself, or in combination with other leavening acids.

Levair has excellent buffering action, which adjust prepared mixes to the varying influences of the numerous ingredients. As this formulation produces a great number of thin-walled cells, baked products made from Levair are notable for their firm yet tender crumb texture. The formation of many thin-walled cells also helps achieve complete ‘bake out’ to produce adry crust with moist eating qualities. Levair also puts the ‘rise’ into self-rising pizza.
