Sosa Water-Soluble Pale Brown Food Colouring Powder is a natural colouring agent derived from caramelized sugar, offering a soft, warm brown tone suitable for a variety of water-based applications. As synthetic dyes like azo compounds face increasing restrictions across Europe and other regions, this ingredient provides a clean-label, plant-based alternative that meets both safety and performance expectations.

Classified as an ingredient rather than an additive, it carries no legal dosage limit and is well suited for daily use in artisan and commercial kitchens. The powder is fully water-soluble and disperses evenly in a wide range of culinary preparations.

Applications

Recommended for use in:

• Sponge cakes, croissants, macarons, meringues

• Royal icing, jelly, custards, ice cream

• Pasta doughs, soft confections, and airbrush colouring

Recommended Dosage

Start with the lower end of the dosage range and adjust based on recipe base and desired tone.

Directions for Use

• For liquid or soft mixtures: Add directly and mix until fully dissolved.
