Carmine Alternatives Market Latest Trends, Demand and Analysis 2019-2029Posted by Vijay Kundekar on September 6th, 2019 Carmine alternatives are the colouring agents that are used as a replacement for carmine in food and beverage and cosmetic products. Carmine is derived using a chemical process from the inedible cochineal insects that are native to Latin America. Carmine had traditionally used in many food products such as confectionery, hard candy, yogurt, alcoholic drinks, etc. to impart a bright red to purple colour. However, the demand for natural and plant-based ingredients is surging from vegan or vegetarian customers that are looking for kosher and halal products. This has raised the search for carmine alternatives for the use in cosmetic, food and beverage products. Currently, sweet potato, red beet, black carrot, paprika, tomato, etc. are being used and further investigated for producing carmine alternatives. The Increasing Health Halo Around the Plant-based Products is Driving the Global Carmine Alternatives Market The global carmine alternatives market is significantly driven by the rising consumer trend for natural and plant-based products. Carmine is produced from the ground bodies of cochineal insects using a chemical process which leads to the retained chemical and other additives in the final products and also in the food products. Moreover, the carmine is able to trigger an allergic reaction in a particular class of the population. Considering the whole buzz around the plant-based and natural products, carmine alternatives have increased market opportunity.
