Depending on the functionality, texturing agents are classified as Emulsifiers, Phosphates, Stabilisers and Dough Conditioners.

Emulsifiers are used in food products where there is a need to allow flavours and oils to disperse through the food items. These type of texturing agents prevent deterioration and evaporation of volatile flavoured oils.

Phosphates are used as texturing agents to modify the texture of food products containing protein and starch, as the phosphates react with the protein or starch contents of these products to bring upon a change in water holding capacity of the constituent components.

Stabilisers, such as natural gum, are used to provide the required texture in several liquid or semi-liquid food products like ice-cream.
