Leaf or Sheet Gelatin works the same as a powdered gelatin, just in a different form or shape. There are three different gelatin sheet grades that have been made over the years; Chrome, Silver and Gold.

Sliver, over the centuries, has become the standard most widely used in the confection industry and is the most readily available. Many chefs, for ease of use, desire the leaf or sheet gelatin. Sheet gelatin allows for the counting out of sheets rather than weighing powder. Gelatin sheets also dissolve slower then granulated or powdered gelatins.

Our sheet gelatin, made in Germany from pork skin material, is a Type A gelatin of the highest quality. Weighing approximately 3.5 grams per sheet. (Not the small 2.5-gram sheets that are out in the marketplace.) Our German made sheets are the standard that chefs and recipes call for around the world.
