What Is Citric Acid Powder?
Citric acid powder is a somewhat weak, organic acid that is typically derived from adding mold cultures to sugars. The resulting product has a variety of uses. The powder is commonly used in several types of food preservation and canning, especially on a smaller scale, such as in the home. Citric acid powder may also be used as a flavoring in certain drinks and foods, particularly in sour candies. The acid has the ability to soften hard water in an environmentally-safe manner and can, therefore, also be used in cleaning agents. One can find the product for a relatively cheap price in bulk amounts.
