Luminous indigo color in fine powder

Butterfly Pea powder is known for its vivid indigo color. The flower blossoms have been dried and ground into a fine butterfly pea powder that can be added to smoothie bowls, lattes, pancakes or sprinkled on your favourite desserts and baked foods. Butterfly pea powder is rather neutral in flavour and will not dominate your food. A comparison can be made with green tea, as this is what butterfly pea tastes like. It is awesome to dye food using natural ingredients!

Butterfly pea is a truly magic plant! 

The plant is PH-sensitive and reacts with acidic liquids. When in contact with hot water, the result is a cobalt blue tea drink. If you squeeze in lemon juice, however, the drink turns purple. However, if you add hibiscus petals to the drink, it turns it fuchsia pink. The drink turns from pink back to blue when in contact with baking soda. Just add a gram of soda and the blue colour is back! Using these tips, you can make wonderful meals and drinks, adding a splash of colour to your everyday life!
