A clouding agent is a food additive, which is commonly used in beverages and other liquid products. It increases the opacity (cloudiness) and thereby improves the appearance of the beverage.
Many clouding agents on the market today are based on inexpensive citrus oils, which are prone to oxidation and off-taste.
Titanium dioxide are also often used in clouding agents, due to its strong clouding effect. However, more and more countries are now banning the use of this ingredient due to health concerns.

- Titanium dioxide free
- Citrus oil free
