The present invention is directed to an iron fortified bouillon concentrate comprising fat, sodium chloride, monosodium glutamate, ferric pyrophosphate, and a citrate buffer. It is directed to a process to prepare an iron fortified bouillon concentrate. This bouillon concentrate allows easy iron supplementation at low cost, without affecting either the original taste or the colour of the bouillon after dissolving and cooking, it does not discolour during shelf life of the bouillon concentrate, and it provides an optimal source of bioavailable iron to the consumer of the food comprising said bouillon concentrate.

Iron supplementation of a bouillon concentrate

The present invention is directed to a new process for supplementation of beverages with soluble and bio available iron in the form of ferric pyrophosphate. This process allows iron supplementation of beverages at low cost, without affecting either the original taste or the colour of the beverages. It is also directed to a concentrate ferric pyrophosphate-citrate solution and its use in the preparation of an iron enriched beverage. The invention also relates to a beverage obtainable by this process.
