What is Organic Cranberry Powder?
Organic cranberry powder is made from 100% pure, dried cranberries, retaining the fruit’s natural vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. The process involves freeze-drying fresh cranberries and then grinding them into a fine powder, ensuring that the nutritional benefits of the fruit are preserved. It has a vibrant red color and a tangy, slightly tart flavor that enhances a variety of dishes and beverages. This powder is not only a great addition for culinary uses but also popular in dietary supplements and cosmetic products due to its high antioxidant content and skin-nourishing properties. It’s free from artificial additives, preservatives, and GMOs, making it a clean and natural ingredient for health-conscious consumers. Furthermore, organic cranberry powder is a versatile and convenient way to incorporate the health benefits of cranberries into your daily routine, especially for those who may not have access to fresh cranberries year-round.
Specification
- Organic Cranberry Powder: Made by drying the whole cranberry fruit, preserving both the skin and flesh.
