Hello to all,

I am a newbie, but I am also a year ten student attempting a science experiment. It's about preservatives, and observing what individual ingredients would affect a cupcake's preservation overtime. I will be baking three cupcakes, one regular cupcake, one cupcake with a natural preservative, and one cupcake with an artificial preservative.

I wish to enquire about the different types of preservatives you may use/recommend?

Thank you for your time. It is very much appreciated!

I can’t tell you what type of preservative to use because the different preservatives perform different functions. So it depends on what your experiment is intended to achieve.



The links below will explain a little bit about preservatives, and the different functions the preservatives perform. This information should help you in the design of your experiment.
