Tartaric acid is an essential ingredient in the confectionery industry, particularly in products like chewy candies, marshmallows, and gummy sweets. It stabilizes sugar crystallization, preventing the sugar from forming unwanted crystals during cooking. This results in smooth, glossy confections with the desired texture. In chewy candy formulations, tartaric acid helps to maintain chewiness and prevent sugar crystallization that could lead to grainy textures. It also plays a role in controlling the final pH of the product, which is crucial for achieving the right balance of sweetness and tartness.
