FAQs
Q: What is the main difference in application between Organic Apple Powder and Organic Apple Juice Powder?
A: Organic Apple Powder retains the fiber and some pulp from the whole fruit, making it ideal for products where body, texture, and insoluble fiber (like pectin) are desired, such as baked goods, bars, or cereals. Organic Apple Juice Powder is highly soluble and delivers a more concentrated flavor and sweetness without the fiber, perfect for clear beverages, instant mixes, or where a smooth texture is crucial.
Q: Are your Organic Apple products suitable for vegan and gluten-free products?
A: Yes, both our Organic Apple Powder and Organic Apple Juice Powder are made from 100% organic apples, making them inherently vegan and gluten-free. They contain no animal products or common allergens.
Q: What is the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?
A: Both our Organic Apple Powder and Organic Apple Juice Powder typically have a shelf life of 18-24 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, in their original sealed, airtight packaging. Specific bulk storage recommendations will be provided with your order documentation.
Q: Do these powders require any special handling during formulation?
A: Due to their natural sugar content and hygroscopic nature, it’s recommended to handle both powders in a low-humidity environment and store them in airtight containers to prevent caking and maintain quality.
Q: Can these products replace sugar in some applications?
A: Yes, particularly Organic Apple Juice Powder, due to its concentrated natural sugars, can contribute significantly to sweetness, allowing for a reduction in added refined sugars in many formulations. Organic Apple Powder also offers natural sweetness along with its fiber content.
