What Is Organic Orange Powder?
Organic Orange Powder is produced using freeze-dried whole oranges, including the peel, pulp, and zest, providing a complete nutritional profile rich in dietary fiber (8g/100g) and bioflavonoids. Ideal for functional foods and supplements, this powder retains the fruit’s natural phytonutrients, including limonene, a compound linked to digestive and skin health.
Organic Orange Juice Powder is made from cold-pressed, NFC (Not-From-Concentrate) juice that undergoes low-temperature spray drying. This process preserves the juice’s ≥90% vitamin C content (110mg per 10g serving) and natural sweetness without added sugars or preservatives. Perfect for beverages, bakery applications, and nutraceuticals, it offers a burst of citrus flavor with 100% organic integrity.
Derived from sun-ripened Citrus sinensis (sweet orange), our Organic Orange Powder and Organic Orange Juice Powder are crafted to deliver the vibrant flavor and nutritional benefits of fresh oranges in a shelf-stable format. Grown on certified organic orchards in Valencia, Spain, and California, USA, these products are harvested at peak ripeness to ensure maximum nutrient retention.
Both products are USDA Organic, EU Organic, and Non-GMO Project Verified. They are sustainably sourced from farms practicing regenerative agriculture, with a focus on water conservation and soil health.
