Description -Ammonium phosphatides, or YN as they are called, are synthetic lecithins used in chocolate production in order to obtain similar properties to phospholipids, but without the typical soya bean odour and flavour.
Application – The emulsifer YN (ammonium salts of phosphatidic acids) was developed many years ago as a substitute for natural lecithin, for use as an emulsifier in neutral-flavour chocolate. It reduces viscosity and yield value. YN can be used in high dosages, without a negative effect on the viscosity of the chocolate mass.
