Yes, caramel color can be organic.
Many manufacturers of organic foods and beverages utilize caramel ingredients for both coloring and flavoring purposes. Specifically, organic caramel color is produced through a carefully controlled heat treatment process, often using certified organic cane sugar as the primary ingredient. This process allows for a caramel color that meets organic standards and is suitable for use in certified organic products.
In summary, while not all caramel color is organic, it is possible to produce and use organic caramel color in accordance with organic food production standards.
