What it is

Red beet juice concentrate is a natural food coloring made from red beets. The beets are juiced, and then the water is removed to create a concentrated liquid or powder form. This process intensifies the red color naturally present in the vegetable.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use red beet juice concentrate to add a vibrant red or pink color to foods and beverages. It is commonly found in products like ice cream, frozen yogurt, candies, and baked goods. Its natural origin makes it a popular choice for brands seeking to avoid artificial colorings.

Health notes

Red beet juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food coloring. It is primarily composed of betalains, which are antioxidants. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated betalains, and they are permitted for use in many regions. No significant health concerns are associated with typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Red beet juice concentrate is derived from beets, which are not among the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
