Ingredient Overview
Spirulina is a cultivated blue-green microorganism used to produce a strongly coloured food ingredient. The dried biomass is known for its protein content and its characteristic green-blue appearance.
The whole dried biomass contributes both colour and a substantial protein-containing food fraction. Its strong character can influence the appearance and flavour of a blend even when other ingredients are present. Spirulina can be explored in green powders and other food concepts built around the cultivated biomass.
