Bread and cake crumb can be strengthened by blending Xanthan Gum with gluten free flour before baking. However, some flours such as FREEE White Bread Flour and FREEE Self Raising White Flour already contain Xanthan Gum. Xanthan Gum is also used to stabilise and thicken some sauces and desserts. Xanthan Gum is made from a sugar created during the fermentation of grain, typically maize, with xanthomonas campestris.

Please see below method for extra information.
