Vibrant hues from nature’s palette—color your creations without synthetic dyes.
Traditional food colorings like McCormick Assorted Food Colors, Wilton Gel Colors, and Betty Crocker Neon Gels often rely on synthetic dyes such as Red 40, Yellow 5, and Blue 1. These artificial additives can be a concern for many seeking cleaner ingredients. Fortunately, there are natural alternatives derived from plants, fruits, and vegetables that offer beautiful colors without compromising on safety.
Please note: Not all flavors from the brands listed above may be dye free. While the specific products linked in this post do not contain artificial dyes at the time of posting, ingredients can change. Always double-check labels and product descriptions before purchasing to ensure they meet your dietary needs.
All information in this post is accurate to the best of my knowledge at the time it was published. However, companies may change their ingredients, packaging, or manufacturing practices at any time. Always read labels carefully and check with the manufacturer if you have any questions or concerns — especially when shopping for children with allergies or sensitivities.
