Review: Better than Pectin - Wife likes to make jelly, and for years it was hit or miss with the store bought pectin on whether her jelly would set or not. Heart breaks and wasted berries, all that is a memory now and this Agar works, period. Great stuff, highly recommended. Review: Great product - but not interchangeable with Agar Flakes - First of all, let me say I have no complaints about this product whatsoever. I bought it to use in a pecan pie recipe. My mistake (and I'm only mentioning this, because this was my first time using agar, and I learned a lot) was in assuming that agar powder and agar flakes could be used interchangeably in the recipe (which called for flakes). My pecan pie slices came out like bricks - haha! So, I plan to make the recipe again, but probably with only half the amount in powder, in the hopes that my second attempt will be much more successful than the first! The seller and product were both great! Thank you. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00015UC48 | | ASIN | B00015UC48 | | Brand Name | Barry Farm | | Coin Variety 1 | Gelatin,Agar Agar | | Container Type | Packet | | Cuisine | Versatile | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (140) | | Diet Type | Vegetarian | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Package Weight | 0.25 Pounds | | Item Type Name | Food | | Item Weight | 4 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Barry Farm | | Manufacturer | Barry Farm | | Material Features | Vegan, Vegetarian | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 2 x 0.5 x 4 inches; 4 ounces | | Size | 1 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | UPC | 050647107617 | | UPC | 050647107617 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Ounce | | Units | 1.0 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Barry Farm - **Item Weight:** 4 Ounces - **Material Feature:** Vegan, Vegetarian - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 1.0 Ounce ## Images ![Agar Agar Powder, 4 oz. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+0yWpvwKL.jpg) ![Agar Agar Powder, 4 oz. - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71RlUJ3nyrL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: will this work for homemade marshmallows? i need a gelatin substitute for kosher reasons.** A: To use alone no, but here is a great vegan marshmallow recipe-http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2010/12/vegan-marshmallows-recipe.html I hope this helps. **Q: what country does this come from** A: The back of the package says Japan.

Worked very well with the freeze / thaw cycle and cheaper than local stores. Use a mg scale if you need a really small amount. --- ## 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.tw/products/1468469-agar-agar-powder-4-oz](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/1468469-agar-agar-powder-4-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
