Color stability of natural colorant on blue pea flowers
The use of natural colorants is highly increasing in the food industry due to strong consumer demand for more natural products. On the other hand, synthetic colorant give harms to consumers that may affect health because of the unsuitable chemicals contained. Color stability of certain product is im...
