All-Natural Food
Dyes
Suntava recently launched a
non-GMO, all-natural alternative
to petroleum-derived synthetic
food dyes. This alternative product contains an extraordinarily
high level of antioxidants and
comes from a natural purple corn
hybrid developed by the company; it has been shown to be
safer than synthetic food and beverage dyes. As the natural dyes
abundant in this proprietary corn
crop are extracted, sustainability is
ensured and waste is minimized.
During extraction, the quality of
the corn’s starches, proteins and
oils remains intact so those elements are available for other uses,
which makes the corn a truly
value-added crop.
