Natural food coloring in the food & beverage industry is gaining popularity with an increasing number of natural food colors and dyes being produced commercially. Innovation in natural food colors to mitigate the application challenges faced by the food industry is one of the key approaches adopted by the companies so as to meet the propelling consumer demand.
