A natural hydrocolloid, carrageenan is a natural extract from specific red seaweed species that are farmed and processed. It is used as a suspending and emulsifying stablizer, thickener, binder and gelling agent. These outstanding properties makes it a very versatile ingredient, finding more usage in meat. Typical applications include making plant-based cheeses and usage in place of animal-based gelatin. This refined kappa type is soluble in hot water at temperatures above 180 F. ## Features - * PURE KAPPA CARRAGEENAN- This pure kappa carageenan powder is processed in Maine and packaged in Maine for American quality for your kitchen. ✡ Highest Quality Assured by Strict Orthodox Union Certification Standards - * VEGAN CHEESE- Carrageenan powder is typically used as a gelling and thickening agent for vegan cheese and other vegan products.

I use it for vegan cheese making, and it is certainly not firm enough for jello how I use it. I am pretty sure agar agar could get firm enough though. **Q: What is the shelf life of this product? Can it be stored in the freezer?** A: The shelf life is indefinite if stored properly. It should not be stored in the freezer. It should be resealed in the pouch that it came in with as little air as possible in the bag. And kept at room temperature in a dry place. **Q: What's the difference between this company's Kappa carrageenan and their Iota carrageenan?** A: Hi Barbara, Kappa produces a harder and more brittle gel and Iota a softer, more elastic gel. **Q: Is it gluten free?** A: I don't have a definitive answer but (1) ingredient listed on package say Kappa Carrageenan only (2) there is a web address on the package where you might find the answer...www.modernistpantry.com. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pure Refined Kappa Carrageenan ⊘ Non-GMO Vegan OU Kosher Certified - 100g/4oz (The original recommended for Vegan Cheese) - Refined Iota Carrageenan Vegan OU Kosher Certified - 50g/2oz - Pure Locust Bean Gum ⊘ Non-GMO Vegan OU Kosher Certified - 50g/2oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/5999479-pure-refined-kappa-carrageenan-non-gmo-vegan-ou-kosher-certified](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/5999479-pure-refined-kappa-carrageenan-non-gmo-vegan-ou-kosher-certified) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-10-03*
