Product Introduction
Jujube color pigment is a natural colorant derived from the jujube fruit, known for its rich nutritional profile and traditional uses in various cultures. The pigment displays a unique reddish-brown hue, making it a favored choice in the food industry for enhancing the visual appeal of products. Its natural origin also allows it to cater to the growing demand for clean label products, free from synthetic additives.
Production Process
The production of jujube color pigment involves several key steps. First, ripe jujube fruits are harvested and cleaned thoroughly to remove impurities. The fruits are then subjected to drying processes, which may include sun drying or mechanical drying, to reduce moisture content. After drying, the fruits are crushed and milled to a powder form. The powder is then extracted using food-grade solvents, followed by filtration and concentration processes to obtain the final pigment. This ensures a high-quality product that retains the desirable characteristics of the jujube fruit.
Application Scenarios
Jujube color pigment finds diverse applications across various industries. In the food sector, it can be used in products like baked goods, candies, and beverages to enhance color without synthetic additives.
