Ingredients & Natural Color Capabilities
Yes. We strictly eliminate palm oil, hydrogenated fats, and trans-fats from our formulations, utilizing sustainable alternative carriers to meet modern clean-label consumer expectations.
All raw ingredients are systematically tested to guarantee compliance with EU Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, US FDA guidelines, and 5-Eyes maximum residue limits (MRLs) for pesticides and heavy metals.
Yes. Our entire B2B line is 100% Certified Vegan. We do not use shellac, beeswax, carmine, or any animal-derived processing aids, ensuring your end products meet strict clean-label vegan standards.
Natural pigments have distinct physical and chemical characteristics compared to synthetic dyes. While plant-based colouring foods cannot replicate the extreme synthetic brightness or broad pH tolerance of artificial dyes 100%, we specialize in engineering high-stability, visually rich natural alternatives. Our technical team provides the closest viable natural shade matches using Spirulina, Paprika, Turmeric, Anthocyanins, and Vegetable Carbon, accompanied by full stability guidance for your specific food matrix.
Custom Formulation & OEM/ODM Capabilities
Custom color-matching typically takes 10 to 15 business days for initial lab sample synthesis. Once your R&D team approves the physical sample, commercial production is scheduled with a standard lead time of 3 to 4 weeks.
Yes. We specialize in industrial OEM/ODM solutions. Our R&D team can engineer tailored color pantones, custom multi-tone medleys, or bespoke geometric sprinkles aligned with your seasonal launches or strict spectral specifications.
Yes. We offer Business Coupon Codes for qualified B2B manufacturers and corporate R&D teams to directly select and order their required samples on our website. Contact us at sales@naturalsprinkles.com with your company details to claim your coupon.
Yes. We offer private-label manufacturing and can pack finished bulk goods directly into your branded industrial pails, master cartons, or bags under strict non-disclosure agreements (NDAs).
You can send your detailed recipe or target specifications (ingredients, percentage ratios, packaging preferences) directly to our sales team via email.
Storage, Processing & Performance
Absolutely. Our B2B range is precision-milled with a high-density, low-static finish (Flow-Tech Optimization) to prevent bridging or clumping in industrial vibratory feeders and pneumatic scatter-depositors.
Yes. Our Bake-Stable Line is specifically engineered to maintain structural integrity and minimize color bleeding within dough matrices (such as cookies, muffins, and sponge cakes) during commercial baking processes. Because thermal resistance varies based on moisture level, bake time, and product geometry, our technical team provides specialized formulation guidance and lab samples for your specific oven trials.
We utilize heavy-duty, high-barrier PE+AL+PET (Poly/Foil/PET) composite liners, double-sealed inside thick corrugated outer cartons. This multi-layer foil structure provides maximum moisture, light, and oxygen isolation to safeguard product freshness and color stability during long-distance ocean transit.
Yes. Our sprinkles feature a hydrophobic crystallization barrier that prevents fat bloom, oil bleeding, or color softening when applied over lipid-rich glazes and chocolate coatings.
Logistics, Freight & Export
Our standard industrial packaging consists of 12 kg or 25 lbs heavy-duty double-corrugated cartons with food-grade high-barrier PE+AL+PET (Poly/Foil/PET) composite liners.
We support a flexible range of international commercial terms (Incoterms) to accommodate our global B2B clients and contract manufacturers, including FOB (Free on Board) and DDP (Delivered Duty Paid).
For our U.S. market clients, we offer streamlined DDP (Delivered Duty Paid directly to your door/warehouse) services. Under these terms, Natural Sprinkles handles the entire export/import process—including customs clearance, import duties, taxes, and final inland transport—delivering bulk shipments straight to your designated U.S. facility or distribution center with zero hassle.

All bulk cartons are stacked on export-grade, hygienic plastic pallets (blue) to eliminate wood-Pest risks and moisture absorption. Each pallet load is reinforced with heavy-duty cardboard edge protectors (corner boards) on all four corners, securely bound with high-tensile plastic strapping, and fully sealed with multi-layer stretch shrink wrap (including protective top sheets) for maximum weatherproofing. Additionally, all pallets feature clear pallet numbering and "DO NOT STACK" handling labels to ensure structural stability and flawless security throughout long-distance maritime transit.
The shelf life varies based on the packaging format:
Bag Packaging (Cartons with Inner Bags): 12 Months
