What it is

Concentrated black carrot juice is a natural food coloring made from black carrots. The carrots are grown, harvested, and then pressed to extract their juice. This juice is then concentrated to create a more potent coloring agent.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use concentrated black carrot juice to add a vibrant purple or red color to foods. It is often found in yogurts, candies, and fruit snacks, providing a natural alternative to synthetic dyes.

Health notes

Concentrated black carrot juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food coloring. It is primarily composed of anthocyanins, which are antioxidants. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated anthocyanins and found them to be safe for consumption. No significant health concerns are associated with its use at typical levels in food.

Allergen info

Concentrated black carrot juice is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
