Locust Bean Gum (LBG) is a natural polysaccharide extracted from the seeds of the carob tree, widely used in the food industry as a thickener, stabiliser, and gelling agent. LBG enhances viscosity, improves texture, and provides stability in dairy products, sauces, soups, bakery fillings, and plant-based foods. Known for its synergistic properties with other hydrocolloids such as carrageenan and xanthan gum, LBG is ideal for creating high-quality, consistent food products.
