Quick Acid is asouring agent for panned confectionery that allows a confectioner to put a layerof citric acid into the matrix of a panned confection without any of thecomplications usually associated with a strong acid coming into contact withsucrose in a panned candy. The co-process technology allows for the formation ofa gelatinous matrix that effectively entraps the acid and stops it from reactingwith the sucrose or migrating within the system.
