[[Agar|Agar-agar]], [[Gelatine|gelatine]], [[Pectin|pectin]] and [[Xanthan gum|xanthan gum]] can be obtained in supermarkets or some delis. I suspect that the remaining additives can only be bought from specialist suppliers. In the UK, I would recommend [[Cream Supplies]] in Portsmouth (which sells the Special Ingredients and the [[El Bullí Texturas range]]) and for the USA I suggest you try [http://modernistcuisine.modernistpantry.com/ Modernist Cuisine's online shop]. If you are considering buying a product from the [[El Bullí Texturas range]], take a look at our [[Sodium citrate]] article, you will be amazed how much you get for your money! | [[Agar|Agar-agar]], [[Gelatine|gelatine]], [[Pectin|pectin]] and [[Xanthan gum|xanthan gum]] can be obtained in supermarkets or some delis.

If you are unsure whether you wish to experiment with molecular gastronomy, I would suggest you buy a small kit.

It also comes with an instruction leaflet and a DVD. | If you are unsure whether you wish to experiment with molecular gastronomy, I would suggest you buy a small kit.
