Acerola cherry powder made from the small tropical fruit of Malpighia emarginata, also known as the Barbados cherry or West Indies cherry. Ours is ripe fruit that is dried and milled into a fine superfruit powder with nothing added, no sugar, no fillers, and no maltodextrin. Acerola is naturally one of the richest plant sources of vitamin C found in food.
The flavor is bright, tart, and lightly sweet with a citrus-like tang that comes from the fruit alone. A little goes a long way, so this fruit powder adds a fruity note without taking over a recipe. The color is a natural pinkish tan that can shift slightly from batch to batch, since it is made from whole cherries and nothing else.
Easy to use in the kitchen. Stir a small amount, about a quarter teaspoon, into smoothies, juice, water, yogurt, oatmeal, or chia pudding. It also works in energy balls, homemade popsicles, salad dressings, and baking where a tart cherry note fits. Start small and adjust, because the powder is concentrated and the taste builds quickly.
A whole food source of vitamin C. Acerola cherries hold far more vitamin C by weight than oranges, which is why many people choose this powder over synthetic ascorbic acid tablets. Adding a small scoop to your daily drinks or meals is a simple way to include fruit-derived vitamin C as part of a balanced diet.
Available in three sizes to match occasional use or a regular routine. This loose fruit powder suits vegan and plant based diets and contains only acerola, with no additives or carriers. Store it in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct light to help protect the natural color and flavor over time.
