Gel Food Coloring
Gel Food Coloring is a concentrated coloring agent used in baking, confectionery and food decoration to add or enhance color; it appears in liquid and gel forms and can be either synthetic or derived from natural sources. Despite its visual impact, Gel Food Coloring provides virtually no energy or nutrients at 0kcal per 100g and is used in very small amounts rather than as a food source. Because it contributes no macronutrients or vitamins, its health considerations mostly relate to whether the dye is synthetic or natural and any regulatory or sensitivity issues; for those who prefer whole-food alternatives, plant-based colorings (for example beet, turmeric or spinach derivatives) offer a color function with additional natural compounds.
