Core production process of Freeze Dried Acerola Cherry Powder

1. Raw material pretreatment

Cleaning and disinfecting: After rinsing the fresh fruit with running water, it is put in a solution of sodium hypochlorite (200 mg/L) for 15 minutes to kill germs.

Pulping: Pitting by hand or machine, and the pulp is crushed into pulp (without adding water).

2. Pulp treatment (optional)

Homogenization: Centrifugal filtration of pomace, retaining juice or pulp.

Addition of auxiliary materials: Pure fruit powder is not added; when fluidity needs to be improved, ≤40% oxidized starch or maltodextrin can be added.

3. Quick freezing

The slurry is quickly frozen below **-30℃** to form micro ice crystals to protect the cell structure.

4. Drying with vacuum

Drying: Heat to -30℃** in a vacuum environment (1.3×10⁻⁴ mbar) to sublimate 90% of water.

Heat to 35°C and remove bound water to get 5% moisture or less.

Protects 98% vitamin C and tastes and looks like fresh fruit.

5. Crushing and packaging

Freeze-dried blocks are ground into powder (80-100 mesh), nitrogen-filled and sealed to avoid light for storage (≤25℃, humidity ≤40%).

Key features

  • The product is natural and nutrient-dense, with long-lasting active ingredients, no artificial ingredients, and a process maintained at ≦35°C.
  • Selecting a procedure: Freeze-drying retains more nutrients than spray drying, which loses 30 to 60% of them. The nutrition and flavor are also far superior.
  • Use: It works well in high-end health products, natural food additives, and sport drinks.

 

Where It ShinesPerfect For

  • Immunity Capsules: Replace synthetic ascorbic acid with bioactive vitamin C.
  • Functional Beverages: Soluble powder blends seamlessly into premixes.
  • Skin Health Formulas: Boost collagen production in nutricosmetic gummies.
  • Private Label Brands: Custom blends with camu camu or elderberry.
