What is Calcium Propionate?
Calcium propionate is an effective inhibitor of the growth of certain molds and some bacteria in bakery goods. It is usually preferred in non-yeast, leavened bakery products because the calcium ions' of calcium propionate interfere with the chemical leavening agents. In those bakery products, such as cakes, tortillas, pie fillings, etc., chemically leaved agents are used (e.g., baking powder). Calcium propionate is easy to handle and easy to incorporate into flour. It is a safe compound when encountered at the low levels found in food.
1. This is an effective inhibitor of the growth of certain molds and some bacteria. It is widely employed in bread to prevent mold and extend the normal shelf life of the product. It is easy to handle and easy to incorporate into flour.
2. As a food additive, it is listed as E number 282 in the Codex Alimentarius. Calcium propionate is used as a preservative in a wide variety of products, including but not limited to bread, other baked goods, processed meat, whey, and other dairy products.
3. In agriculture, it is used, amongst other things, to prevent milk fever in cows and as a feed supplement.
4. Propionates prevent microbes from producing the energy they need, like benzoates do. However, unlike benzoates, propionates do not require an acidic environment.
5. Calcium propionate is used in bakery products as a mold inhibitor.
