Ideal for winemaking, brewing, baking, and cooking, it offers precise pH control and versatile culinary benefits, all in a trusted, food-safe powder form. ## Description Product description Calcium Carbonate uses include: ACIDITY REGULATION - Calcium Carbonate can be used to regulate the acidity or alkalinity of foods such as fruit juices, pastes and preserves. RAISING AGENT - Calcium Carbonates are effective raising agents and pH regulators for baked products. Calcium carbonate leavens baked goods by reacting with acids to produce CO2, which causes your mixture to rise. It is particularly effective in cakes. THICKENER AND BULKING AGENT: Calcium Carbonates are effective bulking agents and thickeners, used to increase viscosity in a wide range of applications such as baked products. Ingredients 100% Calcium Carbonate CaCO3 Review: Yep, it's chalk, albeit very pure. - I saw a recipe for tomato-based chili that used baking soda to reduce acidity for people with sensitive stomachs. Sodium bicarb does reduce acid but tastes awful, so I got calcium carbonate instead because I knew it wouldn't make my chili taste like a mouthful of dirty pennies. You must use less CC than sodium bicarb (maybe less than half the amount), and it takes a bit longer to react and dissolve, but you'd never know it was in there by the flavor. Another benefit is that it supplements your food with calcium, instead of adding more sodium like baking soda will. And it will make your food taste sweeter without adding more sugar. I highly recommend CC for reducing acid in your food. If you use this though you just need to keep in mind a couple of things: 1) When trying it for the first time, add it to your food in very VERY small amounts, and wait for it to work, then taste it again. Before you realize it you can totally neutralize the acid in your food with this, and that's not usually a good thing. 2) Acidity makes a good preservative, so reducing the acid of food also can reduce its 'shelf' life dramatically. Be prepared to eat it all or freeze your leftovers. The product itself is a SUPER fine, pure white powder. Assuming these are industrially purified and formed calcium carbonate crystals, they are tiny; maybe 2-5 microns. That's good because they dissolve best, but It's SO fine that if you were to take a pinch of it to add to your food, you will have trouble getting it off of your fingers. It doesn't dissolve in plain water, and just running your hands under the tap won't get it. I recommend using utensils to handle it. I find that just scooping up a bit on the tip of my table knife and dipping it in my orange juice and stirring it vigorously works best. I bought this for cooking and baking, but I've also found that its mildly abrasive properties and very fine texture are great as a polishing compound for everything from stainless steel, to teeth. Review: Good solid product - great for topical application on teeth - Good! Solid. What do I use this for? My teeth! Use it on your teeth twice a day and watch (and feel) what happens! My teeth have never been so solid and feeling so good. Who knew that calcium carbonate from the outside, applied topically was so effective in boosting teeth health. Well you do now! I just directly apply the powder by putting in a small jelly jar, tapping some directly in my mouth and working it around with the tongue or b. put some in my hand then use a tooth brush to gently apply around my teeth. c. then just follow with appropriate essential oil drops, a good organic toothpaste or baking soda. Do this right after eating any sugar based food or acidic foods and you'll probably end up not having to go to the dentist much into the future... ## Features - INCLUDES: 8 Oz (226.8 g) of Food Grade Calcium Carbonate Powder. - Our food grade Calcium Carbonate in powder form can be used in a wide range of applications. Use it to regulate the acidity or alkalinity of beverages. Use it as a raising agent, pH regulator, bulking agent, and thickener for your baked products. Or use it to increase your daily intake of calcium. Calcium Carbonate is also known as chalk or limestone. - WINEMAKING & BREWING: Use Calcium Carbonate to lower the acidity (increase pH) in your wine or brewing/distilling mash. Add 1/2 tsp prior to fermentation to lower acidity ~0.1%. 1 gram per gallon adds 106 ppm calcium and 158 ppm carbonate. - BAKING: Use it to adjust the acidity of the baking ingredients. It can act as a food preservative and color retainer. Dosage varies, but typically add 0.1 - 2.0% by weight to the dry ingredients. - COOKING: Many more uses in the kitchen! Use it in preparing pickles, cheese, noodle, candy, chocolate, tomato, etc. - OTHER: Calcium Carbonate can be consumed directly to increase calcium levels. - Re-packaged in Canada by CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CFDD9NKM | | Brand | CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. | | Brand Name | CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 257 Reviews | | Flavour | Calcium Carbonate | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 0.24 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 8 Ounces | | Item form | Powder | | Item package quantity | 1 | | Item weight | 8 Ounces | | Manufacturer | CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of items | 1 | | Size | 226.8 g (Pack of 1) | | UPC | 628693605571 | | Unit Count | 226.7962 gram | | Unit count | 226.7962 gram | ## Product Details - **Brand:** CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. - **Item form:** Powder - **Item package quantity:** 1 - **Item weight:** 8 Ounces - **Manufacturer:** CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. - **Number of items:** 1 - **Package weight:** 0.24 Kilograms - **UPC:** 628693605571 - **Unit count:** 226.7962 gram ## Images ![Calcium Carbonate Powder Food Grade - 8 Oz (226.8 g) - Use in Winemaking Brewing Baking Cooking Juices Jams Preserves - Sold by CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ooDzscdiL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yep, it's chalk, albeit very pure. *by B***T on 29 December 2025* I saw a recipe for tomato-based chili that used baking soda to reduce acidity for people with sensitive stomachs.

Perfect for calming acid reflux or indigestion. 1/8t does it for me. Better than taking OTC meds with all the other garbage in them, when Cal Carb is the active ingredient. ## Frequently Bought Together - Calcium Carbonate Powder Food Grade - 8 Oz (226.8 g) - Use in Winemaking Brewing Baking Cooking Juices Jams Preserves - Sold by CAPYBARA Distributors Inc. - NOW Foods, Xylitol, Pure with No Added Ingredients, Keto-Friendly, Low Glycemic Impact, Low Calorie, 1-Pound (Packaging May Vary) - Food Grade Sodium Bentonite Clay - Powder - 1 Pound --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/730711196-calcium-carbonate-powder-food-grade-8-oz-226-8-g](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/730711196-calcium-carbonate-powder-food-grade-8-oz-226-8-g) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-07*
