Colours for pan coated sweets

Sensient Colors Europe has announced a new range of high load natural colours for pan coated sweets that achieve bright, attractive colour shades with advantages in coating performance versus standard natural colours.

Using natural based colours in coated sweets had presented serious challenges because higher dosing levels were required over synthetic alternatives which negatively affected the efficiency of the coating process. “Our new innovative range, developed after extensive research, achieves superior coating properties with unusually low dosages compared to other natural alternatives. Now we can offer brilliant natural shades with fewer panning process applications.  These advanced high load products create intense and vibrant colour shades with superior stability performance and virtually no flavour impact compared to other natural alternatives.“ said Dr Andreas Klingenberg, technical director, Sensient Colors Europe.

Extensive application testing has shown that these high loaded and uniquely protected colour formulations successfully pass light and heat stability tests. Attractive shades of yellow, orange, red, pink, green and brown are now available to offer bright solutions for pan coated sweets.
