## Description

Review: Fantastic Product - This carrageenan is great for making vegan cheeses from the Non Dairy Evolution. I tried another kappa carrageenan before this, which was a lot more expensive even w/o me having paid the uk shipping (I live in mainland Europe) and it did not provide satisfactory results, so if you are looking for a carrageenan for that purpose, this is the one to go for, though you'll probably still have to buy lactic acid powder from the Modernist Pantry in the US, at least I was unable to find that available anywhere in Europe..
Review: Vegan Cheese base - Perfect for my vegan cheese making Thankyou. More solid than Agar gel

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this suitable as thickening agent for milk drinks?**
A: Not really. You’d be better off using corn or tapioca starch.

**Q: what is the difference between Kappa and Iota. I wish to use the product in an art activity, marbling, so which would be best. Thanks**
A: There are many difference's between Kappa and Iota. The main difference is Iota makes soft gels and kappa makes firmer gels. Please read both product descriptions for all the differences. Most people use Iota for marbling but some do use Kappa.
