Black Carrot Powder by Heking

Black carrot powder is a natural plant extract obtained from the fleshy roots of purple-black carrots through aqueous extraction, concentration, and purification. Its core active ingredient is acylated anthocyanins, along with abundant nutrients such as β-carotene and polyphenols. The product typically appears as a fine purplish-red powder with excellent water solubility. Unlike regular anthocyanins, its acylated structure provides superior resistance to light, heat, and pH changes, making it more stable and less prone to fading. It serves as a compliant natural food coloring agent, E163. 

This extract possesses excellent antioxidant properties, effectively eliminating free radicals and offering eye protection as well as relief from oxidative damage. Free from artificial additives, it is safe for use. Widely applied in beverages, baked goods, dairy products, and candy coloring, it can also serve as a functional ingredient in dietary supplements and skincare products, combining both coloration and nutritional benefits. It is an ideal natural plant-based extract for replacing synthetic dyes.
