Easy on the eggs!

26 May 2026

 Egg replacers are perfect for accommodating egg allergies, and vegan diets. Egg powders are prized for their long shelf life, making them the perfect addition to commercial baking toolkits.

But what are they exactly? Let’s take a closer look!

What is Egg White Powder?

Egg white powder is a highly concentrated form of pure liquid eggs whites that has been dehydrated into a powder. 

How is Egg white powder made?

  1. Egg whites (albumen) go through separation from the yolk

  2. The liquid is then heated to kill harmful bacteria like Salmonella. This is known as the pasteurisation process.

  3. Then finally they are spray dried. This is when the pasteurised whites are turned into a fine mist and exposed into warm air, instantly evaporating any moisture into a shelf-stable powder.

Why use egg white powder?

Egg white powder provides a highly functional alternative to fresh egg white for both baking and high protein nutrition. Baking uses include:

  • Improved Meringue stability: Egg white powder acts as a high whip formula that aerates easily. It holds its shape longer for macarons, marshmallows and pavlovas.
  • Food safety: Egg white powder undergoes paustrisation during manufacturing. This eliminates the risk of samonella in raw or lightly cooked egg recipes like royal icing or cocktails.
  • No waste: as state above, you won't have any wastage of egg yolks if a recipe calls for only egg whites!
  • Better shelf stability: This one is a no brainer! Egg white powder stores safely in the pantry for months without taking up fridge space.

What is Egg Replacer?

Egg replacers are vegan alternatives to eggs. They help replicate the key functions in baking, including binding leavening, adding moisture and thickening.

Why use egg replacer?

Egg replacer is used for many reasons including:

  • Dietary restrictions: It's the perfect replacement for people with food allergies
  • Ethical or lifestyle choices: Egg replacer is handy for people following a vegan or vegetarian diet.
  • Health management: Egg replacer can help with lowering dietary cholesterol or fat intake
  • Availability: Run out of fresh eggs? This is the perfect back up to keep in the pantry in case that does happen.
