SOSA Natural Red Food Colouring Powder - 200g
Sosa All-Natural Red Food Colouring Powder is made from concentrated fruit and vegetable juices, including radish, apple, and blackcurrant. Through a process of concentration, evaporation, and filtration, this colouring achieves a vivid red tone without the use of artificial dyes. It is classified as an ingredient rather than an additive, meaning it carries no dosage restrictions and is suitable for frequent use in culinary applications.
Its ultra-fine particle size allows it to suspend effectively in both water- and fat-based systems, making it ideal for diverse preparations in pastry, chocolate, and frozen desserts.
