What Is Blue Spirulina Phycocyanin?

Blue spirulina phycocyanin is an all natural colour protein that’s derived from spirulina – an amazing microalgae with a ton of nutrition in it. Blue spirulina phycocyanin provides a very natural blue colour to food and products, unlike artificial blue colours, and, for that reason, has become very popular on clean-label products.

With consumers carrying on to look towards more plant based and recogniseable ingredients, and they wanted that too, organic phycocyanin powder is pretty much the ideal product for manufacturers looking to add visual appeal to their products along with positioning their ingredients as premium.
