Based on the staff's recommendation, here is the procedure for adding Perfect-C™ (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate) when using a hot process emulsifier like Butter Cream Maker:

  1. Prepare your cream base by heating the water and oil phases to 70-80°C as usual for your hot process emulsifier.
  2. Emulsify the water and oil phases until a cream texture is achieved.
  3. While the cream is still hot, continue stirring at a low speed.
  4. Allow the mixture to cool down to approximately 40°C.
  5. At around 40°C, add Perfect-C™ (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate) and any other heat-sensitive ingredients.
  6. Mix the formulation at a speed of at least 1000 RPM for 1-2 minutes to ensure proper dispersion.

This method ensures that the heat-sensitive Perfect-C™ is added at a temperature where its stability is maintained.
