What is Organic Carrot Powder?
Organic Carrot Powder is meticulously crafted from 100% pure, organically cultivated whole carrots. After harvesting, the ripe organic carrots are thoroughly cleaned, gently dried (often via methods like air-drying or freeze-drying to preserve nutrient integrity), and then finely milled into a versatile, free-flowing powder. This careful processing ensures the preservation of carrot’s characteristic orange color, natural sweetness, and comprehensive nutritional profile, including dietary fiber, beta-carotene, Vitamin K, potassium, and various antioxidants.
We also supply Organic Carrot Juice Powder, which is produced by extracting and then carefully drying the pure juice of organic carrots. This process concentrates the intense natural sweetness, vibrant orange color, and especially the high levels of soluble vitamins and antioxidants into a highly soluble and potent form. This makes it ideal for beverages and applications where rapid dissolution, concentrated benefits, and a smooth texture are paramount.
Each powder is produced with care to maintain the carrots’ exceptional flavor, inviting color, and inherent nutritional value, providing a versatile and clean-label ingredient for your formulations.
