Summary:1. A composition, which is an anthocyanin-based colorant composition comprising 50-90 mol-%, based on the total amount of anthocyanins, of pelargonidin-based anthocyanins, and wherein (i) > 70 mol-% of all anthocyanins are acylated with at least one phenolic acid; and (ii) > 20 mol-% of all anthocyanins are acylated with at least one hydroxycinnamic acid; and wherein the composition has a red color with a hue value H ≥ in the L*C*h* color system in the range of 10-30, measured at an L*-value of (70.0 ± 0.1) in a 0.1 mol/l trisodium citrate dihydrate buffer at pH 3 in a 1 cm-length quartz cell using Spectraflash 650 (Datacolor) in transmission mode under D65 illuminant 10 Deg. Also, the present invention relates to use of the above compositions as a food colorant.
