- E160a Carotene Carotenes are orange-yellow pigments, either synthesised or extracted from carrots, algae or palm oil.
- E160c Paprika extract Paprika extract is a red-orange colour extracted from paprika peppers.
- E428 Gelatine Gelatine is a gelling agent made from collagen in animal skin and bones.
- Colour Colours are added to restore colour lost in processing or to make a product look more appealing.
