Gelatin is an unflavoured protein powder made from collagen, used to set mousses, panna cotta, jellies, and marshmallows. One metric cup (250 ml) of powdered gelatin weighs around 150 grams or 5.29 ounces. Most recipes call for it by the packet (one packet = 7 g = about 2.3 tsp) or by the tablespoon, where 1 tbsp weighs about 9 grams.

Too little gelatin and a mousse won't hold its shape; too much and the texture turns rubbery. Measuring by weight is far more reliable than scooping, which packs the powder differently each time.

Agar-agar is the plant-based alternative to gelatin, derived from seaweed. It sets firmer and holds at room temperature. Use the agar-agar converter for vegan-friendly gels and jellies. See our Agar-Agar converter.

Pectin is the fruit-based gelling agent used for jams and jellies. Unlike gelatin, it requires sugar and acid to activate. Use the pectin converter when making preserves. See our Pectin converter.
