26 Mar 2021 --- Two Chlorella vulgaris microalgae powders, manufactured by the Portuguese provider Allmicroalgae, have been approved as food ingredients and food supplements by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). The variants White and Yellow Chlorella vulgaris are noted for their sensory profile. Compared to conventional, intensely green-coloured products, these latest offerings are more visually neutral and deliver a discrete taste profile, while offering the same nutritional value. Due to the increasing demand for plant-based food solutions – such as in bakery and confectionery, in ice creams, mayonnaises and snacks – Yellow Chlorella works well as an egg substitute, while White Chlorella can replace conventional dairy bases such as milk, increasing the protein content of the product.
