Product description:

Beetroot powder can be used as a food colouring or to increase vitamin intake by adding to smoothies.

Beetroot powder is a natural red food colouring. It has a slightly sweet taste and it is an ideal substitute for artificial red colours that can cause allergic reactions to some people.

These colours are very stable under exposure to light and oxygen, and are most stable in a slightly acidic medium. It is widely used in a range of food products at levels between 0.1 to 2%
