What natural ingredient besides honey and fats can I use to bind a mixture of powders together? [closed] - Crop anonymous woman with teen preparing mixture from egg whites for sweet pastries at table in house

So I need to turn super food powders into something more tangible, like a stick form. Honey seems to not be that effective and has a lot of sugar and fats melt quite easily. Water obviously not a good option. What else could I try? Thanks so much for any answers!



Best Answer

You could use nut butter, caramelized sugar, marshmellows or gelatin to bind things together, but it really depends on what is in the powder you are trying to solidify.

Answer 2

Several options come to mind:

  • Gelatine: Mix the powder with water and gelatine to get something ranging from Jell-O to gummy bears
  • Eggs 1: Mix with eggs and fry. If that is too soft try adding some flour
  • Eggs 2: Mix with eggs, fill into a metal pipe with one closed end and put it into a water bath
  • Cereal and honey: Mix with cereal and honey, form bars and pour on more cereal to remove stickiness. That way you get a cereal/granola bar

Edit: Or you make pipes from sugar, chocolate, waffles, etc. and fill them with a mixture of your superfood and whatever you like. Seal the pipes using the same material as glue.
