Sosa All-Natural Violet Purple Food Colouring Powder is a clean-label, plant-based pigment made from carrot and hibiscus concentrates, processed through a meticulous method of concentration, evaporation, and filtration. This naturally vibrant powder delivers a rich purple hue without artificial dyes or additives.
It is considered an ingredient, not an additive, meaning it has no dosage restrictions and is safe for regular use in professional food applications. Thanks to its ultra-fine texture, it disperses smoothly in both water- and fat-based recipes, offering exceptional versatility for bakery, pastry, chocolate, and frozen dessert production.
