Measuring the Colour
of Mustard
Consumers judge food products by the way they appear since the ability to taste before buying is rarely an option. Condiments and sauces are packaged in transparent containers specifically for this reason, as purchasing decisions are often based primarily on visual appeal. HunterLab delivers the right colour measurement solutions necessary for meeting the quality standards of visual perception for mustard sauce. Our unparalleled colour measuring instruments give producers quantitative values to accurately evaluate their quality.
Why measure the colour of mustard sauce?
Colour consistency is a crucial product feature for manufacturers of mustard as consumers expect their sauce to be the same shade of yellow; every time they look for it. Off-colour batches can cause damage to a brand’s reputation and lead to a decline in sales and a loss of market share.
HunterLab’s spectrophotometers are used widely to measure the colour of mustard sauce. The objective measurement solutions describe the colour as a series of numerical values with decimal accuracy. This allows for accurate measurement and documentation.
To implement colour quality control in a mustard production process, manufacturers must test a specified number of samples against the pre-programmed standard in a spectrophotometer. If they return results within an acceptable tolerance range, the batches they represent are clear for bottling. If they produce results outside the standard range, the product should be corrected and retested before processing.
