Updated by SFA
Paprika extract (INS 160c(ii)) can be considered as a colouring matter “natural to edible fruits and vegetables”, as well as a colouring matter “from flowers, leaves, roots and other plant parts which are customarily used in the preparation of food” under Part II of the Fifth Schedule of the Food Regulations. It is allowed for use in food under good manufacturing practice, unless otherwise prohibited by individual food standards.
