Gardenia Blue E30

What is Gardenia Blue?

Gardenia Blue is a natural water-soluble blue pigment derived from gardenia fruit, produced through modern bio-enzymatic hydrolysis technology. It seamlessly blends nature's bounty with technological innovation, delivering a bright, pure lake blue hue. This represents a key technological breakthrough in achieving stable blue pigments within the natural colorant field.

As a clean label ingredient, Gardenia Blue aligns with global health food trends and finds extensive applications in beverages, confectionery, dairy products, baked goods, and cosmetics. It offers strong coloring power and high stability, maintaining consistent color across a pH range of 3-8 while demonstrating excellent lightfastness and heat resistance. When blended with Gardenia Yellow, it can create a full spectrum of greens ranging from pine green to emerald green, offering vast creative possibilities for product development.

We rigorously control the entire chain from gardenia cultivation to finished product manufacturing, ensuring the pigment is safe, pure, and traceable. The product complies with EU E163 regulations and international food standards, with support for certifications including Halal and Organic. Gardenia Blue not only imparts reassuring natural color to products but also infuses brands with core values of naturalness, technology, and sustainability.
