Botanical Source: Rubus idaeus L. (Red Raspberry)
Used Part: Whole Fruit
Key Active Components: Ellagic Acid, Anthocyanins (cyanidin-3-sophoroside, cyanidin-3-glucoside), Vitamin C, Quercetin, Dietary Fiber.
Standardization: Available as whole fruit powder (with natural sugar and fiber profile) or standardized to ellagic acid content (e.g., 1%, 5%).
Appearance: Fine, light pink to dusty rose powder with characteristic dark specks (from seeds).
Flavor: Bright, tart-sweet, authentically raspberry with pleasant floral undertones.
Solubility: Disperses well in water; not fully soluble but contributes body, texture, and natural color.
Our gentle process ensures the preservation of delicate flavor compounds, heat-sensitive vitamins, and vibrant anthocyanins:
Fruit Selection & Sourcing: Sourcing of premium, sun-ripened raspberries from trusted growers. Fruits are inspected for quality, color, and optimal brix (sugar content).
Thorough Washing & Cleaning: Raspberries are gently washed to remove any field debris while minimizing damage to the delicate fruit structure.
Low-Temperature Drying: The clean fruit undergoes gentle drying using freeze-drying (lyophilization) or low-temperature air drying technologies that remove moisture while preserving heat-sensitive nutrients like vitamin C, anthocyanins, and volatile flavor compounds .
Fine Milling: The dried raspberries are milled into a fine, consistent powder using specialized equipment that prevents excessive heat generation. The powder includes the whole fruit, including seeds, which contribute to the characteristic dark specks and provide additional fiber .
Sieving & Standardization: The powder is sieved to achieve uniform particle size and blended for batch-to-batch consistency in color, flavor, and nutritional profile.
Quality Assurance: Each batch is tested for flavor profile, color value (anthocyanin content), ellagic acid content, microbial safety, and heavy metals.
