The food color market is heavily influenced by regulatory agencies and rules implemented by government organizations. For example, the industry was required to substitute chlorophyll in ice cream due to a change in EU rule EC No. 1333/2008 on food additives. As a result, the use of chlorophyll in ice cream is no longer permitted.
Furthermore, in the United States, since January 2011, chlorophyll and cochineal must be listed by name on the ingredient list, and the declaration of ‘added color’ is no longer allowed. Given the scenario, shifting norms and regulations may have an impact on the industry. In addition, Procter & Gamble has patented the process of removing chlorophyll color impurities from vegetable oils.
