Colour measurement of cereals
For breakfast or as a snack between meals: muesli, flakes and flakes in all sizes, shapes, colours and flavors are made from grains such as corn, wheat, rice, millet, spelt, oats, barley and rye. In many cases, the colour of the cereals is measured to ensure batch consistency with demanding colour standards.
As with most foods, consumer perception of cereal flavor is closely linked to colour. HunterLab was the first company to receive USDA approval for the industrial evaluation of food colour, and many of the world’s leading cereal producers rely on HunterLab’s quality control solutions, including General Mills, Kellogg’s, Purina and Gilster-Mary Lee.
