Lycomato’s Power on the Mitochondria
Lycored’s flagship nutrient is getting a fresh look and becomes Lycomato6. Lycomato to the power of 6: First, let’s address the elephant in the room, Lycomato6 ‘s formula stays...
Consumer awareness of food, health, and other household products is growing and with that, the demand for naturally derived, plant-based colors is soaring.
In a crowded market, Lycored shines bright as a leader in the market with a few key points: stability, naturally derived, and last but not least: colorful, of course.
Our plant-based color products are extracted from our two proprietary breads of tomatoes. In the extraction process, all parts of the tomatoes are used to create products of our portfolio.
The tomato serum goes towards our CTC and SANTE. Then the pulp of our red tomatoes is used to create our Lycofibers and the oleoresin that will become our reds and tomato-based nutrients.
And just like that, our red color products produce zero waste from our harvested tomatoes. We bring that extra level of care into every step of our production to bring you high-quality ingredients that your customers can feel confident in.
Planet-friendly colors
Blakeslea Trispora, isn’t just a smart tongue twister. The fungi is naturally very potent in carotenoids, particularly Beta-Carotene – which is the base of our yellow, gold and orange superstable color collection. Naturally derived, these cheerful shades cater to the growing demand from consumers to go back to more natural food products.
When it comes to ensuring the whole family’s satisfaction and well-being, Lycored puts their best selves forward.
Our color family is designed to be pH, high heat, and light stable over shelf-life while providing your customers with beautiful foods and beverages. As our color portfolio is directly extracted from our nature, they are vegan-friendly, halal, kosher, non-GMO, and label-friendly.
Without further ado, let’s dive into our 6 plant-based colors:
The resiliency of this red-to-pink shade shines through fruit preparations, beverages, and seafood. This product not only provides you with a great product story for your consumer but is also up for the challenge of food processing.

A particularly well-suited option for vegan and vegetarian products, ResoluteRuby is a great stability performer.
