I bake dog treats from home and I am now ready to go further. There is an opportunity to put them into stores but because of shelf life I am thinking of adding Potassium Sorbate.
i would like to stick to being natural but with the uncertainty of not knowing how long they sit on the shelfs it should be wiser to add it.
Do I have to list it as an ingredient ? Since per KG of weight there is only 0.1 gr of Potassium Sorbate needed as per information from a book " Baked Goods Freshness".
Does anyone know how much I do have to add?
Also should I use a different preservative for Treats that contain Meat??
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
