On a scorching summer afternoon, chilled lemonade, mango ice cream, freshly baked pineapple buns. Yellow quietly emerges as the "visual king" of summer foods. This trend is not coincidental; psychological research demonstrates that yellow is one of the most easily perceived colors in the spectrum, stimulating dopamine secretion in the brain and conveying feelings of pleasure and vitality. These attributes naturally align with the themes of "passion" and "freshness" associated with summer. As consumer awareness of food health attributes intensifies, labels emphasizing natural, safe, and clean ingredients have become new consumer priorities. Among these, turmeric natural pigment has risen to prominence as the "golden new favorite" in the food industry due to its stable coloring performance and broad food compatibility. 

Turmeric is extracted and refined from the rhizomes of Curcuma longa L., a member of the Zingiberaceae family, using organic solvents. It exhibits a vibrant yellow hue and is commonly employed in the food industry for coloring and flavor enhancement.

Turmeric appears as a yellow to dark reddish-brown powder, extract, or liquid, characterized by its distinctive odor. It boasts strong coloring power, bright coloration, excellent thermal stability, and is safe and non-toxic. Recognized as one of the most promising natural edible pigments, it is also classified as a highly safe natural pigment by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Sensory and physicochemical indicators are specified in the product quality standard GB 1886.60-2015 "National Food Safety Standard Food Additive Turmeric."

In frozen drinks (Food Classification Number: 03.0), such as ice cream and popsicles (Food Classification Number: 03.01) and flavored ice cream and ice cream bars (Food Classification Number: 03.03), turmeric acts as a "natural colorist," perfectly presenting the colors of tropical fruit flavoured ice cream like mango and pineapple. 

In compound seasonings (Food Classification Number: 12.10), turmeric functions as a "golden magician," infusing spices with a rich golden hue. This color not only signifies intense flavor but also evokes associations with quality labels such as "fresh" and "rich taste" through visual stimulation.

In baked goods (Food Classification Number: 07.0), turmeric transforms into a "gentle painter," coating bread (Food Classification Number: 07.01) and pastries (Food Classification Numbers: 07.02 and 07.03) with a soft light golden tone. This warm shade, resembling the natural color of grains, satisfies consumer expectations for "no additives" while imparting a fresh texture akin to freshly baked goods. 

In the beverage industry, including carbonated beverages (Food Classification Number: 14.0), fruit and vegetable juice (pulp) beverages (Food Classification Number: 14.02.03), and flavored beverages (Food Classification Number: 14.08), turmeric emulates the natural yellow tone of beverages, creating an inviting orange-yellow hue.

In candies (Food Classification Number: 05.02), turmeric enhances the attractiveness of orange-yellow hues.
