Natural Coloring in the Pink Range

“Consumers are looking for a cleaner label,” says DDW Application Scientist Glen Dreher. “They want to see words they understand, recognize and can pronounce, and that’s where naturally derived colors have a good role.”

Consumers are demanding more natural and clean label food and beverage products. At DDW, we are helping food and beverage manufacturers and product developers meet that demand through naturally derived colorings. For applications where naturally derived pink hues are required, anthocyanins and carmine are good options.

DDW offers many natural coloring alternatives to synthetic pink. Some raw material sources that can be used for food and beverage colors in the pink range include red cabbage, red radish, beet juice, cochineal, and more.

New:: We now offer oil dispersible naturally derived solutions for pink hues. In addition, there are also water soluble options available. Contact us for more information.
