About Agar pearl

Agar pearls are small, jelly-like spheres made from agar, a plant-based substance derived from seaweed. Widely used in Asian cuisines, particularly in desserts and beverages, agar pearls are celebrated for their smooth texture and ability to absorb flavors. As a natural alternative to gelatin, agar is packed with dietary fiber, making it beneficial for digestion and gut health. It’s free of fat, cholesterol, and common allergens, making it a popular choice for vegetarian and vegan diets. However, while agar pearls have minimal calories and no added fats, their nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation. When combined with sugary syrups or sweetened beverages, the overall calorie and sugar content increases. Nonetheless, agar pearls are a versatile ingredient, appreciated for their refreshing texture and health-conscious appeal in culinary creations, from bubble teas to puddings.
