Blue Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) is a tiny, blue-green microalgae found in alkaline freshwaters of Mexico, Asia and South America. The alga has been around for 3.5 billion years and is one of the oldest organisms in the world. The precious ingredient phycocyanin is found exclusively in spirulina and, as its most important phytopigment, gives it its bluish colour. Blue spirulina contains as much as 19 % phycocyanin, which is responsible for the strong blue colour. The antioxidant is part of the photosynthesis process and can store solar energy.
In addition to its valuable blue pigment, the alga is known as a source of unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins such as vitamin B12, enzymes, and trace elements and minerals such as iron, calcium and potassium. Spirulina also has an almost complete spectrum of amino acids and thus offers all the essential components that the human organism needs to build cells and to produce hormones and enzymes. With a protein content of 60 %, blue spirulina powder is one of the most protein-rich natural products of all and is therefore also very popular with vegans and raw foodists.
Spirulina has a long tradition as a food, especially in Asia. Even in early times, spirulina algae was dried and added to soups, pastries and cakes. But Blue Spirulina algae has not only become known as a food, but also as an all-natural colouring agent. Blue Spirulina is colourfast up to 70° C. However, if you do not want to do without the vitamins and vital substances of the superfood when colouring food, you should only carefully mix in the sea blue powder at the very end, during the cooling process.
Our blue spirulina powder SEA BLUE with phycocyanin is tasteless, vegan, gluten- and lactose-free. Spirulina MEERESBLAU powder is carefully filled in violet glass in Germany to optimally protect the product from light.

The powder is neutral in taste and remains colourfast up to 70 °C. It can be used to colour all kinds of food and drinks. Strongly colouring at below 70 °C, therefore only a small amount is necessary.
Note: The powder must not be heated above 70°, otherwise it will lose its bright colouring power.
