Rainbow blend carrots are a vibrant mix of differently colored carrots, each hue offering unique flavors and nutrients. They range from purple, red, orange, yellow, to white, making them not only nutritious but also visually appealing. These carrots can be enjoyed raw, cooked, or as part of a dish, adding both color and variety to meals.


The history of rainbow carrots traces back to Central Asia over 4,000 years ago, where carrots were originally purple or white. It wasn't until Dutch growers in the 17th century started cultivating orange carrots as a tribute to William of Orange that the color became more common in Europe. Over time, selective breeding brought back the variety in colors, leading to the modern rainbow blend we see today.
