Sensient Food Colors Europe has extended its Cardea range with an even wider choice of bright new colour shades. Sensient’s Cardea product line is completely composed of natural ingredients and concentrates meeting growing clean labelling demands and fits perfectly with the new EU guidance notes on colouring food.

The Cardea concept unlocks nature’s full colour potential with carefully selected raw materials processed with proprietary technologies offering bright shades and strong natural positioning.

“Through screening a wide choice of ingredients, our scientists defined their characteristic functionality to optimize superior performance in food and beverage applications. This allows protection against both oxidation and fading in order to safeguard the intense natural colour shades available. These new shades are especially suitable for sweet and fruity applications such as yoghurt, dairy and fruit preparations as well as confectionery and other food and beverage use,” says Dr Roland Beck, Managing Director of Sensient Colors Europe.

The unique composition of Cardea enables food manufacturers to claim the total formulation of the colouring preparation as natural and complies with the new EU guidance notes. Together with superior colouring performance and consistent colour shades, Sensient’s Cardea range is a winning combination.
