Color

Safrante Specialty Foods S.A. is a saffron specialist company. Our work over the years with this spice, creating derived products, and experimenting with the different organoleptic capacities of this plant has resulted in a patented process to obtain a 100% natural yellow color based on natural crocin of saffron, a carotenoid that provides an intense yellow color. It is free of artificial colorings, does not contain gluten and is resistant to cooking and freezing processes. The stability and durability of the color is much higher than that of its natural competitors (e.g. beta-carotene and curcumin). It is totally soluble in water and alcohol, even at low temperature, leaving no residues in the final product.

Safrante 5. Egg yellow
