# Avicel® Protects Texture. From Extrusion to Customer.

# HEAT SHOCK can ruin the texture of your frozen dessert... and lower the shelf life of your product. Heat shock? It's the result of how many times your product is subjected to freeze-thaw cycles... from the time you make it until the ultimate consumer enjoys the last spoonful. Avicel can help eliminate heat shock problems, maintaining your original quality... and extend shelf life. Avicel is a microcrystalline cellulose product that retards the growth of ice crystals in frozen desserts. It protects body and texture without adding unwanted flavors... and enhances the product life of your frozen desserts.

The illustration is meant to show how much care is put in avicel from manufacturing to the consumer.
