What is organic garlic powder?
Organic Garlic Powder is meticulously produced from 100% pure, organically grown garlic cloves. The process involves carefully selecting, cleaning, slicing, gently dehydrating at low temperatures to preserve volatile compounds and flavor, and then finely milling the dried garlic into a homogeneous, free-flowing powder. This method ensures that the full spectrum of the garlic’s distinctive flavor and beneficial compounds, including alliin (a precursor to allicin), is retained. The organic certification guarantees that the garlic is cultivated and processed without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, GMOs, or artificial additives, aligning with strict clean-label and natural ingredient standards.
Organic Garlic Powder is highly valued for its unique combination of culinary versatility and traditional health properties:
- Intense Savory Flavor: Delivers a concentrated, pungent, and savory garlic taste that enhances a vast array of dishes and food products.
- Traditional Health Support: Recognised for its historical use in supporting cardiovascular health, immune function, and overall well-being, largely attributed to its sulfur-containing compounds.
- Antioxidant Properties: Contains natural antioxidants that help protect cells from oxidative stress.
- Convenient & Stable: Offers the flavor of fresh garlic in a shelf-stable, easy-to-use powdered form, eliminating the need for peeling or chopping.
With its rich history, broad spectrum of applications, and natural health benefits, our Organic Garlic Powder is the ideal ingredient for manufacturers looking to enhance the flavor, functional profile, and market appeal of their products with a pure, transparent, and authentic solution.

FAQs
Q: What is the source of your Organic Garlic Powder?
A: Our Organic Garlic Powder is derived from 100% organically grown garlic cloves (Allium sativum).
Q: Does your Organic Garlic Powder contain allicin?
A: Organic Garlic Powder contains alliin, which is the precursor compound to allicin. Allicin is formed when alliin comes into contact with the enzyme alliinase (released when garlic is crushed or cut). While the powder contains the potential for allicin formation, the actual allicin content can vary and is often maximized when rehydrated or consumed.
Q: What’s the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?
A: Our Organic Garlic Powder typically has a shelf life of 24 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dark, dry place (below 75°F / 24°C), away from direct sunlight and moisture, in its original sealed, airtight packaging. Proper sealing is crucial to maintain its pungent aroma and flavor.
Q: Is your Organic Garlic Powder non-GMO and allergen-free?
A: Yes, as a certified organic product, our Organic Garlic Powder is inherently Non-GMO. It is also naturally allergen-free, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary preferences and product formulations.
Q: How does the flavor of garlic powder compare to fresh garlic?
A: Organic Garlic Powder offers a more concentrated and pervasive garlic flavor than fresh garlic, as the drying process removes water and intensifies the flavor compounds. While fresh garlic provides a sharp, immediate “bite,” garlic powder disperses more evenly and integrates a deeper, sustained garlic essence throughout a product.
