According to embodiments, a dry powdered composition which may be reconstituted to provide a gelatin product includes powdered gelatin and a pelletized colorant. The pelletized colorant includes a pigment-protein complex and at least one encapsulating agent for encapsulating the pigment-protein complex. The pelletized colorant has a rate of dissolution of less than 2 grams/minute in water having an initial temperature of from about 95°C to about 100°C. In another embodiment, a dry powdered composition is disclosed comprising : powdered gelatin and a pelletized colorant comprising : a pigment-protein complex and at least one encapsulating agent encapsulating the pigment-protein complex. In yet a further embodiment a method of making a powdered gelatin composition is disclosed, the method comprising : mixing powdered gelatin with a pelletized colorant comprising : from about 0.1 wt% to about 40 wt% pigment-protein complex based on the weight of the pelletized colorant and from about 60 wt% to about 99.9 wt% encapsulating agent based on the weight of the pelletized colorant, wherein the pelletized colorant has a rate of dissolution of less than 2 grams/minute in water having an initial temperature of from about 95°C to about 100°C.Selon des modes de réalisation, la présente invention concerne une composition en poudre sèche qui peut être reconstituée afin de fournir un produit gélatineux comprenant de la gélatine en poudre et un colorant en granulés. Le colorant en granulés comprend un complexe pigment-protéines et au moins un agent dencapsulation pour encapsuler le complexe pigment-protéines. Le colorant en granulés a un taux de dissolution inférieur à 2 grammes/minute dans leau à une température initiale denviron 95°C à environ 100°C. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, une composition en poudre sèche comprend de la gélatine en poudre et un colorant en granulés comprenant un complexe pigment-protéines et au moins un agent dencapsulation qui encapsule le complexe pigm
