GNT releases new green, plant-based colours

GNT has expanded its range of plant-based Exberry colours with the launch of two new green shades that are made from spirulina and turmeric.

Exberry Shade Lime Green provides a vibrant yellowish green, while Shade Jade Green offers a vivid bluish green. They are halal, kosher and vegan-friendly and can be used in a variety of applications, including gummies, jellies and hard- and soft-panned confectionery as well as dairy products including yogurt and ice cream.

The new colours are the latest additions to GNT’s selection of green shades, helping the company cater to the demand for cost-effective greens that support clean, consumer-friendly label declarations.

Jeannette O’Brien, vice-president at GNT USA, said, “There is a significant global demand for vibrant green blends containing non-GMO, plant-based ingredients that are processed cleanly without synthetic additives. Exberry colours are a perfect fit as they’re made using gentle, physical methods and based on the principle of colouring food with food. Turmeric and spirulina are also well-known ingredients that strike a really positive note in the modern marketplace.”
