Hello! I'm Ashley

My passion for natural color began almost 20 years ago, when I set out to create chemical-free artist paints from plant-based sources. Inspired by the vibrancy of these natural pigments, I began exploring another passion of mine: natural, delicious sweet foods.

Unlike other natural food colors, which often hide additives and sacrifice performance, I worked closely with food scientists to create colors made from the cleanest ingredients — without compromising on how they perform.

Color Kitchen offers vibrant, natural colors and colorful baking embellishments that bring joy to every mixing bowl.

COLORFUL BEGINNINGS

I discovered my sensitivity to chemical additives at an early age. Raised by a nutritionist mother, I grew up attuned to how food affects health and wellbeing — and with a serious sweet tooth of my own, I made it my mission to create wholesome color options for playful, healthy treats

MY COMMITMENT TO NATURAL COLORS AND BEYOND

Colorfulness is a way of life. From how we dress, to where we live, to the art we create and what we eat, color is all around us. When I created Color Kitchen, my goal was to build color essentials in the most sustainable way possible — from how I source ingredients, to the cleanest formulation standards, to sustainable, repurposed, and recyclable packaging.
