Divi's Nutraceuticals introduced a naturally sourced food ingredient for the dark yellow to orange coloration of a variety of foods and beverages. The ingredient, called CaroNat, is made from concentrated carrot juice naturally rich in beta-carotene, and manufactured without the addition of silicon dioxide to serve as a clean-label color ingredient.
Because of the company’s innovative production process, CaroNat is a stable fine powder that provides superior performance in a wide range of applications such as beverages, instant drinks, yogurt, gummy candies, cakes, puddings, frozen desserts, and more. It dispenses uniform, natural coloration to food preparations thanks to the equalization of its beta-carotene content. It shows excellent stability during food processes such as pasteurization and cooking, and good dispersibility in beverage applications.
CaroNat allows for claims such as “no artificial color/ingredient,” “vegetarian,” and “vegan.”
