What is Cochineal Extract?

Cochineal extract is a natural red dye obtained from the bodies of female cochineal insects (Dactylopius coccus). These insects are native to Central and South America and are typically found on certain species of cacti, such as the prickly pear cactus. Cochineal has been used for centuries to produce a vibrant red color, and it remains a valuable natural coloring agent in various industries.


Here's a detailed introduction to Cochineal Extract:


1. Source and Extraction

  • Cochineal insects are cultivated on specific cacti in regions like Mexico and Peru.


  • The crimson or carmine red color is derived from the dried and crushed bodies of the female cochineal insects.


2. Active Ingredient

  • The primary colorant in cochineal extract is carminic acid, which is responsible for its vivid red color.
