Blended synthetic food colours

Suppliers being invited

Ready mixed shades made from two or more FSSAI permitted synthetic colours, such as egg yellow (tartrazine with sunset yellow) or apple green (tartrazine with brilliant blue), saving small units from mixing primaries. FSSAI treats these as colour mixtures or preparations: only permitted dyes and diluents, total dye content declared on the label, and final food within category limits. Avoid blends containing amaranth, quinoline yellow or brown HT, which are not permitted in India.

How asking works

1
Say how much, and where
Your ask is free and isn’t an order. Change it or take it back any time.
2
We gather brands in your city
Once enough ask for the same product in one place, our team sets up a group deal.
3
Suppliers bid sealed prices
The suppliers who make it bid per unit at each quantity, under a ceiling we set. The best bid wins.
4
You pledge, the price drops
Our team gets in touch when it opens. The more brands pledge before closing, the lower everyone’s price.
