Candeuba®: natural innovation for fruits, baked goods, and confectionery

Feb 26, 2026 | Sin categorizar

Introduction

In the food industry, quality lies in the details: a fruit that keeps its freshness and shine, bread that releases effortlessly from the mold, or a candy with a flawless glossy finish. To achieve this, at Multiceras we developed Candeuba®, an exclusive blend that combines the best of candelilla wax and carnauba wax.

This unique innovation provides tailored solutions for specific processes, delivering tangible benefits that impact both production efficiency and consumer experience.

The value of a unique blend

Candeuba® balances the hydrocarbon fraction of candelilla with the ester content of carnauba. The result is a set of properties ideal for the food industry:

  • Stable, natural shine
  • Moisture-loss barrier
  • Hardness and resistance under different conditions
  • High oil retention and easy emulsification
  • Plant-based ingredients compliant with international regulations

Main applications of Candeuba®

Fruit coatings

Within the family, Candeuba® C (code 6404) stands out as a solution designed for edible coatings on fresh fruits. This formulation delivers uniform shine, reduces dehydration, and extends shelf life by allowing natural gas exchange. The result: fruits that retain their fresh and appealing look for longer.

Baking release agents

For bakery processes, Candeuba® offers options such as Candeuba® Olen (6411) and Oleowax P (6412). Both are designed to work as release agents, forming a lubricating layer that prevents products from sticking to molds. This reduces waste, speeds up production cycles, and ensures consistent release results.

Confectionery polishing

In confectionery, Candeuba® A (6410) is the solution that delivers the glossy, uniform finish that makes candies and sweets more attractive. Its hardness and high melting point ensure the coating remains stable even under changing storage and distribution conditions.

More than ingredients—real solutions

Candeuba® is more than a family of plant-based blends: it is a comprehensive solution to the challenges of freshness, efficiency, and visual appeal that today’s food industry demands.
