Food Colours
edited by Victoria Emerton

In recent years, the colours industry has undergone significant change, as a result of increasing consumer demand for natural, rather than synthetic food colours. Food Colours details some of these changes within a concise, easy-to-use framework.

With all chapters contributed by industry experts, the book covers synthetic, nature-identical, and natural colours.

The following topics are covered for each colour discussed:

  • Colour
  • Physical characteristics
  • Applications
  • Physiological properties
  • Analytical methods

This guide is an invaluable and authoritative source of reference on the commercial use of food colours. It also contains a review of worldwide legislation allowing readers to gain an understanding of regulatory issues relating to food colouring in different countries.
