What is Vegetable Carbon?
Vegetable carbon is a food additive, which the European Union (EU) and Canadian authorities have approved. However, it is prohibited in the United States, as the FDA does not approve its use. The E153 has a common name known as vegetable carbon. It is also known as carbon black, vegetable black or carbo medicinalis vegetabilis. Vegetable carbon E153 is utilized as a Natural Coloring agent in food products and frozen drinks.
Vegetable carbon is produced from green bamboo, refined from high-temperature carbonization process. Its production is through steam activation. Steam activation is achieved by charring vegetable fibres. Raw materials like nutshells, peat, wood, and cellulose residues are used to achieve this process.
They are ground into small particles before adding glycerin or glucose for ease of use in food. This contains fine particles of carbonized vegetable material. The carbon black powder is particularly fine. Its color shade ranges from grey to black, depending on the amount used.
