Canthaxanthin (Food Additive International Code: INS161g) is mainly used as an animal feed additive to give egg yolks and poultry meat a more vivid color, and salmon a more reddish color.
Canthaxanthin can also be used in jam, candy, syrups, sauces, carbon dioxide drinks and other foods, as a colorant. However, canthaxanthin is more commonly used in animal feed than as a food coloring agent.
