Provided herein are compositions and processes for producing compositions from an algae to provide heme and a red or red-like color to edible compositions including ingredients and finished food products. Also provided are methods of growing heme-producing algae, methods of producing algae preparations therefrom and methods of making ingredients and food products with algae preparations. Also provided are compositions, including edible compositions that include heme and other nutrient components produced from algae. L'invention concerne des compositions et des procédés de production de compositions à partir d'algues pour fournir de l'hème et une couleur rougeâtre ou rouge à des compositions comestibles comprenant des ingrédients et des produits alimentaires finis. L'invention concerne également des procédés de culture d'algues produisant de l'hème, des procédés de production de préparations d'algues à partir de celles-ci et des procédés de fabrication d'ingrédients et de produits alimentaires avec des préparations d'algues. L'invention concerne également des compositions, comprenant des compositions comestibles qui comprennent de l'hème et d'autres composants nutritifs produits à partir d'algues.
