China Bulk Butterfly Pea Flower Powder Natural Color Shifting Pigment For Drinks & Baking Suppliers, Exporter
Product Description
Product Description
Butterfly pea flower powder is water-soluble blue botanical powder milled from dried Clitoria ternatea petals, colored by anthocyanins. It shifts from indigo blue to magenta under acidic conditions, with mild flavor and good heat & light stability. Rich in antioxidants, it supports eye health, cognitive function and anti-aging. Widely used in color-changing beverages, baked goods, natural supplements and skincare.
Key Features
Butterfly pea flower powder presents indigo blue in neutral water and instantly shifts to purple/rose-red in acidic liquids like lemon, fruit juice and soda, great for gradient color-changing drinks. It outperforms phycocyanin in heat and light stability, contains no seaweed fishy off-flavor, and has a light taste that won’t overpower ingredients’ natural flavor.
