What Is Organic Orange Powder?
Organic Orange Powder is crafted from freeze-dried whole organic oranges (Citrus sinensis), retaining peel, pulp, and core nutrients. We also supply Organic Orange Juice Powder, a spray-dried concentrate from cold-pressed organic orange juice. Both deliver vibrant citrus flavor, rich vitamin C, and bioflavonoids without additives.

FAQs
Q: What is the main difference between Organic Orange Powder and Organic Orange Juice Powder?
A: Organic Orange Powder is made from the whole orange fruit (including some peel), retaining its fiber and a more complete, zesty flavor profile. Organic Orange Juice Powder is made from concentrated orange juice, making it highly soluble, with a more intense, tangy-sweet juice flavor and less fiber.
Q: Do both products provide Vitamin C?
A: Yes, both Organic Orange Powder and Organic Orange Juice Powder are excellent natural sources of Vitamin C and other antioxidants from the orange.
Q: How should I store these orange products?
A: To maintain freshness and prevent clumping, store both Organic Orange Powder and Organic Orange Juice Powder in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use.
Q: Can I use these powders to make orange juice?
A: Organic Orange Juice Powder is ideal for reconstituting into a juice-like beverage by mixing with water. While Organic Orange Powder can be added to liquids, its fiber content means it won’t fully dissolve into a clear juice.
Q: Are there any added sugars or artificial ingredients?
A: No, our Organic Orange Powder and Organic Orange Juice Powder are made from 100% organic oranges or orange juice and do not contain any added sugars, artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. Their sweetness comes naturally from the fruit.
