Carrageenan or xanthan gum may enable cassia gum powder to form cohesive and elastic gel structures.
The branched polysaccharide structure of cassia gum may support synergistic interaction with carrageenan.
Improved texture may be observed when cassia gum powder is blended with xanthan gum or carrageenan.
Thermal processing may allow cassia gum and carrageenan blends to retain stable gel behaviour.
Lower hydrocolloid usage may be possible due to efficient gel formation in cassia gum blends.
