Butterfly Pea Flower Extract Powder

Butterfly Pea Flower Extract Powder – Premium Natural Blue Colorant & Functional Ingredient

Shaanxi Nuoyuan Biotech Co., Ltd. delivers pharmaceutical-grade Butterfly Pea Flower Extract Powder sourced from premium Clitoria ternatea flowers. Our state-of-the-art facility is able to handle over 20,000 tonnes per year, with 5 HPLC testing systems to assure standardised anthocyanin content and 100% water solubility. Our extract has a fine mesh size of 80-100 therefore there is no sedimentation in the beverage.

All batches are certified to ISO9001, HALAL and Kosher standards and undergo stringent heavy metal testing (Pb <3ppm) and microbiological screening (TPC <10,000 CFU/g). Unlike simple flower powders, our product contains heat-stable ternatins that retain bright blue colours even over 100°C, making it suitable for pasteurisation and baking applications in the food, beverage and cosmetic sectors.

What Makes Our Butterfly Pea Flower Extract Powder Superior?

Ground petal powders and this concentrated extract are not the same thing. We use spray drying technology to standardise the anthocyanin levels and provide a clean label ingredient to replace the synthetic FD&C Blue No. 1.

When combined with lemon or lime juice, the powder's pH-responsive magic causes the colours to organically change: deep royal blue at neutral pH, purple at pH 4-5, and magenta below pH 3. This special feature enables you to make gradient cocktails that are worthy of Instagram without the need for extra ingredients.

With its high ORAC value and abundance of delphinidin-based bioflavonoids, our extract provides anti-glycation benefits and an antioxidant capacity that supports cognitive function. An substance that serves two purposes—coloring and nourishing—can be used to make clean cosmetic products or functional beverages.

Technical Advantages That Drive Your Formulation Success

Superior Heat Stability: Our extract maintains its properties when heated above 100°C in pasteurisation and baking. Other unstable phycocyanin sources will lose their colour.

Standardised 80–100 mesh sizes for quick dispersion in cold water and minimal clumping issues in RTD beverage manufacturing lines are examples of precision particle engineering.

HPTLC Verified Purity: To guarantee authentic Clitoria ternatea provenance and no adulteration with less expensive grape skin anthocyanins, every batch undergoes High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography testing.

Allergen-Free & Clean Label: Butterfly Pea Flower Extract Powder is 100% additive-free, non-GMO, naturally caffeine-free and addresses increasing consumer need for clear ingredient lists in North American and European markets.
