Lycored, the global leader in naturally derived carotenoids for food, beverage, and dietary supplement products, is celebrating their 30 year anniversary with the debut of three superstable, nature-based color emulsions at the IFT FIRST Annual Event and Expo in Chicago (booth #1437). This launch expands Lycored’s stellar cast of naturally derived colors, known for unparalleled performance and stability across the most challenging applications.
For over three decades, Lycored has developed a reputation for unlocking nature’s goodness in solutions that empower brands to create innovative food, beverage and nutraceutical products, with particular relevance in scientifically substantiated, plant-based and clean label offerings. Among their vast portfolio, Lycored is at the forefront of nature-based color innovations, the next frontier in satisfying consumer demands for more wholesome foods and beverages amid an evolving regulatory landscape concerning synthetic colors.
As part of the 30-year milestone, Lycored is spotlighting their Time to Shine campaign by expanding their nature-based, taste-neutral color offerings with three new shades that deliver reliable performance and long shelf life across a wide range of applications. Ideal for beverages including UHT dairy and plant-based UHT, gummies, supplements, sauces and fruit preparations, these vibrant new colors excel as nature-based replacements for Yellow 5 and 6. StellarYellow A shines in juice beverages and concentrates, while StellarYellow C Clear makes a bright addition to clear beverages and gummies. OrangeOvation C Clear provides long shelf life and crystal-clear performance across a variety of beverage and gummy applications. These new offerings build on a well-established portfolio of lycopene-based red color solutions that are an ideal replacement for Red 3 and Red 40.
Senior Manager, Global Marketing, Megan Dunn stated, “Over the last 30 years, Lycored has grown into a trusted global leader in nature-based colors. At a time when food and beverage manufacturers are increasingly turning to nature-based solutions, our portfolio meets demand for high quality, clean label ingredients that deliver superior performance and stability compared with synthetic alternatives. With the launch of three new best-in-class, naturally derived color emulsions, now is Lycored’s Time to Shine.”
