By Allan Nicky Walden

E600-E700 Food Additives: A Practical Guide to Food Additives, Flavour Enhancers, Stabilizers, Thickeners and More

What exactly is hidden behind the "E" number on a food label?

This practical reference guide explores the food additives found within the E600 and E700 series, explaining what they are, why they are used, where they come from, and what role they perform in food production.

From flavour enhancers and acidity regulators to stabilizers, thickeners, glazing agents and other specialised food additives, each E-number is examined individually in a clear and consistent format.

The book provides useful information including:

- E-number identification and classification
- Trade names and common names
- Chemical names, CAS numbers and INS numbers
- Physical characteristics and properties
- Sources and methods of production
- Functions and uses in food
- Other recognised applications
- Solubility and practical characteristics
- Safety information and Acceptable Daily Intake where established
- Dietary considerations, including vegan, vegetarian, halal and kosher considerations where applicable
- Gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free and maize/corn-free considerations where relevant
- Allergen and cross-reactivity information
- Medical and dietary considerations where appropriate
- Practical limitations and usage considerations
- Alternatives and replacement information where meaningful

Rather than simply presenting a list of additives, this book is designed to help the reader understand what each additive actually does.

Whether you are a food enthusiast, cook, baker, student, food professional, researcher, or simply someone who wants to understand the ingredients appearing on food labels, this book provides a structured reference that makes the often-confusing world of E numbers easier to navigate.

E600-E700 Food Additives brings these additives together in one comprehensive reference, using a consistent format throughout so that individual E numbers can be easily compared and consulted.

A practical guide for anyone who has ever looked at an ingredient label and wondered:

"What exactly is E600... or E700... and why is it in my food?"
