Product Name: Annatto extract

 Latin Name: Bixa Orellana

Code: E160b

Main Functions:

nnatto extract is listed as a color additive exempt from certification (Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations part 73) and is commonly considered to be a natural color. The yellowish orange color is produced by the compounds bixin and norbixin, which are classified as xanthophylls, a type of carotenoid. However, unlike beta-carotene, another well-known carotenoid, they do not have the correct chemical structures to be vitamin A precursors. The more norbixin in an annatto color, the more yellow it is; a higher level of bixin gives it a more reddish shade. Unless an acid-proof version is used, it takes on a pink shade at low pH. 

 

Applications:     

 

Cheddar cheese is often coloured and even as early as 1860 the real reason for this was unclear: Englirsh cheesemaker Joseph Harding stated "to the cheese consumers of London who prefer an adulterated food to that which is pure I have to announce an improvement in the annatto with which they compel the cheesemakers to colour the cheese".
