Natural colours play a pivotal role in enhancing the visual appeal of dairy particularly in fruity yoghurts and creamy desserts. In a day and age where visual appeal is so important in influencing consumer choice, vibrant colours derived from natural raw materials can help a product stand out from the crowd, not only on shelf, but also at the dining table. Additionally, the utilisation of natural colours in dairy products aligns with the ever-relevant industry trend towards clean-label formulations. Consumers are increasingly mindful of the ingredients used in the food they consume, preferring natural alternatives over synthetic additives and artificial colours. By including colours from natural sources in their recipes, dairy manufacturers can cater to these preferences while meeting the demand for visually appealing products.

The benefits of using natural colours in dairy products
