Processing aids are ingredients that are used to assist with the production of food, but play no functional role in the final product. Common processing aids include antifoams, enzymes, filtration aids and antistick compounds.
Regulations vary from country to country but, generally speaking, any residual amounts of a processing aid does not need to be declared so long as it has no carry over effect in the final product. However it is important that you check the individual country requirements. For Australia and New Zealand products, section
1.3.3 of the Food Standards Code outlines the regulatory requirements. |
