Dyed edible food casings, e.g., sausage casings, are produced by applying an edible dye to an edible carrier therefor, fixing the dye on the carrier by use of a protein, and admixing the carrier with an edible casing material to form an extrudable composition. That composition is then used for production of the casing by extrusion. The dye can be a water soluble dye, a fat soluble but water insoluble dye, or a water insoluble, alkali soluble dye.

A dyed edible food casing produced by the process which comprises: a. applying an edible dye to an edible carrier therefor in finely divided form so that the dye coats the carrier particles, b. fixing the dye on the carrier particles by contacting the coated carrier particles with a protein from the group consisting of gelatin, collagen and casein for complex formation whereby the dye becomes fixed on the carrier, and thereafter, c. admixing the carrier coated with the dye with an edible casing material to form an extrudable composition, and, d. extruding the resulting admixture to form the dye casing.
