Most people will wonder why carrot powder is not orange like the carrot. The first thought usually is "how old is this?", or "is this really carrot powder"

Here is the answer:

Once a vegetable is milled it will quickly lose its color.
This is especially so with carrots.
"Carotene" is what gives carrots its orange color. After carrots are milled to powder the carotene fades very rapidly, usually within 30 days. This will always result in a very pale orange, yellowish and sometime white color.
There is nothing wrong with the carrot powder it has simply lost its color.
