Product description

Carmine powder, also known as cochineal extract, is a natural red pigment derived from the crushed bodies of female cochineal insects. Widely used in various industries, including food, cosmetics, and textiles, carmine powder provides a vibrant red hue. Due to its intense coloring properties, it is commonly employed as a natural food dye in products such as beverages, confectionery, and cosmetics. While carmine powder offers excellent color stability, its use may be limited in vegan and vegetarian products due to its animal-derived origin.
