This product, "Spirulina Blue," is a natural edible colorant extracted and refined from the algae Spirulina (Spirulina platensis). Its main components are phycocyanin and phycocyanin protein, and it is available in blue powder or granule form. It dissolves easily in water but is insoluble in alcohol and fats. It is somewhat unstable to heat, light, and acid, but remains stable under weakly acidic to neutral conditions (pH 4.5 to 8), with precipitation possibly occurring under acidic conditions (pH 4.2). It decolorizes under strongly alkaline conditions, has low stability with metal ions, and its dyeing ability is limited. For food applications, it can be used in candies, jellies, ice pops, ice cream, cheese products, and fruit juice beverages. As a naturally derived blue colorant, it is characterized by high safety and the ability to impart vibrant colors.
