Lake colours, also called lake pigments, are a type of food colour produced by blending a dye with a substrate, such as calcium carbonate or aluminium oxide. This resulting pigment is not soluble in water and is typically used in products that have fats and oils, such as butter and chocolate. Lake colours by Alliance Organics LLP are highly stable compared to other food colours, which makes them suitable for products with a long shelf life.
We take great pride in the exceptional dispersion properties of our Lakes, which set them apart from the competition. We achieve this by producing our Lakes in specialized mills that allow us to precisely control the particle size, resulting in a product that offers unparalleled dispersion in dry powder mixes.
The even distribution of particles within a medium, or dispersion, is critical in determining the colour value of our Lakes. When a Lake is well dispersed, its colour is evenly distributed throughout the mix, resulting in a higher colour value. This is why we put great care into optimizing our Lakes for dispersion.
Our specialized mills use cutting-edge technology to break down the particles to the desired size, resulting in a product that offers exceptional colour dispersion in dry powder mixes. Our commitment to quality and innovation has earned us a reputation as a trusted name in the industry.
Whether you need Lakes for food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, or personal care products, our Lakes are the ideal choice thanks to their superior dispersion properties. Choose Alliance Organics LLP for Lakes, which offers exceptional quality and performance.

Lake colours are water-insoluble pigments that are derived from water-soluble dyes. They are widely used in the food industry to add colour to various products, such as baked goods, confectionery, beverages, and dairy products. Lake colours are also used in the pharmaceutical industry to colour tablets, capsules, and syrups.
In the cosmetics industry, lake colours are used to add colour to a variety of products, such as lipsticks, eye shadows, and nail polishes. They are also used in the textile industry to dye fabrics, yarns, and fibres.
One of the primary benefits of using lake colours is their excellent stability, which means that they can withstand high temperatures, light, and pH changes. This makes them ideal for use in a wide range of applications where colour stability is critical.
