A Deep Look into Spirulina: an Emerging and Popular Natural Color Source

2016-08-31 14:17:33

The demand for Spirulina in the food and beverage industry seems to be continually increasing, but quality standards need to weed out the not-so-clean sources. At Sensient, the safety and authenticity in coloring foods and natural colors has been a huge priority for many years.

It is why we launched the Certasure™ certification program for all of our colors from botanical sources. We believe color is an important contributor to the overall enjoyment of food, and color from natural sources shouldn’t be the cause of food safety worries.
