Among the most commonly used food dyes for condiments and spices, we find carmine, curcumin, paprika and annatto. These additives are used to provide the colour, complemented with the flavour of the spices, to foods and preparations, which range from red to orange and yellow tones.
For the most part, the colorants and seasonings are used in other products such as meats, sauces, preparations, etc. The type of colouring used for each use will depend on this. In condiments for meat and sausages, the red colour is the predominant colour. At IMBAREX we use cochineal carmine, in its different presentations, either in powder or liquid form.
For sauces or concentrates, more orange shades are usually used, so paprika and curcumin are ideal. At IMBAREX we offer paprika oleoresin and curcumin, which are excellent orange colorants.
For more yellow tones, used in curries or chicken seasonings, annatto is a great option. At IMBAREX you can find different extracts and by-products of annatto such as norbixin powder, liquid norbixin, annatto in oil suspension or bixin as options.
In short, at IMBAREX you can find all the natural dye solutions for different uses and shades. For more information, contact us here and our advisors will contact you.
