Application
The study indicated that Anthocyanins from black carrot show very high stability while preserving its red colour in a wide pH range, making them ideal for use in yogurts, beverages, fruit bases and confectionary.
Black or purple colour carrots with high anthocyanin content have possible to be used in food, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical preparations.
The peach to strawberry red colour that black carrot extract produces can provide a natural alternative to synthetic food colorings.
