Plant-based orange EXBERRY® colors for food and drink
Food and drink play a crucial role in emotional wellbeing. EXBERRY® orange shades can unite consumers with a feeling of joy, combining the stimulation of red with the cheerfulness of yellow.
Orange influences the perception of sour and sweet flavors
A global survey exploring the feelings colors evoke shows that orange is most widely associated with joy.[1] It is seen as a color of summer sun as well as autumnal harvests. It is associated with healthy foods including citrus fruit, ginger, carrots, and pumpkins and the color is commonly connected to both sour and sweet flavors.[2]
