Abstract

Viscoelastic materials such as gelled food products are differently colored in zones with polymeric dyes. When a polymeric dye is added to a zone of a viscoelastic material, such as a gelled food product, it does not migrate from the zone; thus permitting an essentially permanently multizoned colored product.
