Royal AVebe's Award-winning PerfectaGEL cuts vegan gummy drying from days to as little as 3 hours
Vegan gummies can spend 36 to 72 hours in the drying cabinet before a single batch is ready to pack. Royal Avebe's PerfectaGEL ISET changes that. It sets immediately after depositing, reducing drying time to as little as 3 hours in both starch and rigid moulds. The innovation has just won the Ingredients Innovation category at the World Confectionery Awards 2026.
