Is E445 Kosher?

Kosher all year around


Description: Glycerol esters of wood rosins (emulsifier)

Function: emulsifier

Rationale: Glycerol ester of wood rosin (ester gum) is derived from plant-based wood/tall-oil rosin and is consistently described by suppliers and kashrus-adjacent sources as kosher parve without a flagged animal-glycerol sourcing controversy, unlike E471-family glycerides.

If you don't see a status above, it does not mean the additive is not kosher automatically - it might just not be documented in our database yet.
