SKOKIE, ILL. — Sethness Products Co. has introduced P600, a dark, low-sulfite Class III powdered caramel color. It may be used to help formulators stay below the Food and Drug Administration labeling sulfite threshold of 10 parts per million (p.p.m.). The P600 is 30% darker than P450, another Sethness dark, low-sulfite Class III powdered caramel color.
Potential applications for the P600 include meats, spice blends, cereal, baked foods, cocoa extenders, texturized vegetable protein (TVP) and hydrolyzed vegetable protein (HVP).
