Kosher all year around
Description: Canthaxanthin (food colouring)
Function: food colouring
Rationale:
Canthaxanthin used as a food colour is commercially produced by total chemical synthesis from beta-ionone precursors, not extracted from animal sources, so no kashrut concern found (no authoritative kashrut agency flag located).
If you don't see a status above, it does not mean the additive is not kosher automatically - it might just not be documented in our database yet.
