Capsicum Oleoresin is a food-grade concentrated extract of Capsicum annuum/frutescens peppers containing capsanthin (colour), capsaicin (heat) and other carotenoids for food colouring and flavouring.We supply bulk Capsicum Oleoresin sourced from leading China manufacturers, available in liquid and oil forms to meet global food industry demand. Our Capsicum Oleoresin is widely used in red-orange food colouring, chili sauce base, flavouring, snack seasoning and spice blends.
Capsicum Oleoresin is obtained by solvent extraction of dried capsicum peppers. This yields a concentrated oil containing capsanthin/capsorubin (red carotenoid pigments), capsaicin (pungency compounds) and fatty oils.
Standardised by colour value (CU) and/or Scoville heat units (SHU). Used to add both red-orange colour and heat to sauces, seasonings, processed meats and snack foods.
