These techniques involve the use of spherification, gelification, and foamification to create unique textures and presentation. Spherification involves the reaction of sodium alginate with calcium chloride, while gelification involves the heating of gelatin and sugar to create a firm, jelly-like texture. Foamification involves the whipping of a mixture of sugar, water, and stabilizers such as gelatin or agar to create a light, airy foam.
