Wholesaler Acerola Powder
Acerola powder is considered an excellent source of vitamin C (ascorbic acid), with levels in ripe fruits normally between 1,000 and 2,000 mg of ascorbic acid/100g of pulp, depending on the cultivar and climatic conditions of the cultivation region. Additionally, acerola varieties that produce red or purple fruits are rich in anthocyanins, a pigment present in the fruit’s peel, which, like vitamin C, has an antioxidant function in the human body. Acerola powder is also a reasonable source of provitamin A and contains B vitamins such as thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2) and niacin (B3), along with minerals such as calcium, iron and phosphorus, although their levels are low. It has a high pulp yield and numerous uses, with potential for processed products and the pharmaceutical industry. Frozen pasteurized pulp and pasteurized juice are the main commercially exploited fruit products. Its low-calorie content, compared to other fruit juices, has increased the product’s market value and consumption. On a smaller scale, acerola is also used in the manufacture of products such as nectars, jellies, freeze-dried products, preserves, liqueurs, wines, ice cream, syrups, and candies, and is added to other fruit juices for enrichment with vitamin C.
