Natural colorants are preferable nowadays due to their beneficial health values. Natural colorants have been used as one of the colorants in food. The banana bracts, scientifically known as Musa X paradisiaca will be used in this study as the raw material. This study aimed on determining the best concentration of methanol in methanol-water, the best temperature to maintain the colorants in the samples extracted and the best storage condition. The banana bract layers will be washed and cut into smaller pieces. The colorant contains in banana bracts, known as anthocyanins will be extracted by blending 10g of banana bracts into the solvent until the bracts fully blended in a blender. Then, the sample extracted will be filtered to remove the residue of banana bract layers. Rotary evaporator were used to remove all methanol from the solutions extracted.
