nope, there's only one agar...that son is fact! lol but no pectin sucks it doesn't hold well at room temp so ya need lots of flour but then by that point ya may as well have just made a brf paste

I ended up having to order in the end.... fleabay. Drove 50 miles round trip to 2 different asian grocerys and both times they were sold out. The one oriental lady didn't even seem to know what agar was until I said "it's used in dishes and desserts, made from seaweed...lol." ... crazy.

How about you stop grasping at straws and just find the agar. Asian markets or online, get to it.
