Blue Spirulina Powder

Blue Spirulina Powder (Phycocyanin Extract) is a vibrant, naturally derived blue pigment extracted from blue-green algae (Arthrospira platensis). Prized for its striking electric-blue colour and neutral flavour, it's one of the most popular natural blue food colourants used in smoothies, baking, and drinks.

What Is Blue Spirulina? Blue spirulina is a concentrated extract of phycocyanin - the pigment responsible for the vivid blue colour found in blue-green algae. Unlike green spirulina, blue spirulina has a mild, neutral taste with no strong algae or fishy flavour, making it far more versatile as a natural food colouring ingredient.

Key Benefits

• Intensely pigmented. A small amount produces a bold, vivid blue ideal for natural food colouring without artificial dyes.
• Neutral flavour. Unlike green spirulina, blue spirulina won't overpower the taste of your recipe.
• 100% plant-based. Fully vegan and free from artificial colours or additives.
• Naturally rich in phycocyanin - an antioxidant-linked pigment studied for its potential anti-inflammatory properties.
• Versatile format. Dissolves easily into liquids and blends smoothly into batters and mixes.

How to Use Blue Spirulina Powder

Smoothies & Drinks: Add ½–1 tsp to smoothies, juices, lemonades, or coconut water for a vivid blue or turquoise colour. A popular choice for "blue moon" lattes and mermaid smoothies.
