Natural colors for snacks and cereals
Consumers are demanding more from their snacks. While they were once considered a guilty pleasure, today’s shoppers are seeking out healthy, natural, and sustainable options.
Color is an essential aspect to stand out from the competition. A product’s appearance is crucial to creating shelf appeal and sends out important signals as to its quality.
Our range of EXBERRY® plant-based colors contains hundreds of shades from across the rainbow. Discover what our clean-label food colorings can do for your snack and cereal products.
Coated Snacks
Colorful fat coatings are ideal for eye-catching bakery products, desserts, and cereal bars. Our natural coloring solutions can add an array of interesting tones and brilliant shades without complicating ingredient lists.
EXBERRY® OD or MN products can be used to achieve a homogenous color effect and more intense visual impact in fat-based coatings. These ranges are created with a smaller particle size that enables them to achieve vibrant shades.
The GNT Technical sales team can provide advice on the ideal food coloring solution for your application.
