Food Colour Powdered Red is a natural colouring powder developed for professional pastry, confectionery, ice cream, and modern gastronomy applications. Part of the Food Colour range, it provides vibrant red tones and excellent colour intensity while preserving the flavour, texture, and quality of the final preparation.
Its anthocyanin-based formulation makes it particularly suitable for recipes requiring bright natural red shades and precise colour control.
Use
Perfect for sponge cakes, macarons, meringues, royal icing, gelatine, coatings, cocoa butter, ice cream, pastry cream, chocolates, and decorative applications, Food Colour Powdered Red adds vivid colour and visual impact to a wide variety of sweet creations.
For optimal colour development, maintain the preparation at a pH between 3 and 4.5. Avoid exceeding 0.1% ascorbic acid or derivatives, as excessive acidity may destabilise anthocyanins and alter the final shade.
Incorporate directly into the preparation or premix with part of the recipe to ensure homogeneous distribution.
