Organic Baobab Fruit Powder

Organic Baobab Fruit Powder is categorized as a superfood or superfruit due to its outstanding nutritional characteristics. It is naturally bursting with essential minerals, antioxidants, electrolytes and prebiotic dietary fiber. The fruit powder has a subtle lemon sherbet-like flavour which combines perfectly with other products, providing multiple opportunities for food innovation. As a result, it is being increasingly adopted by food and beverage brands as an ingredient in a wide range of products.

The Baobab tree (Adansonia digitata) is known in Africa as "The Tree of Life", and they are almost unique in that their fruit occurs naturally as a dry powder – the fruit pods dehydrating and hardening on the branch throughout the dry season. It is thought that this process of dehydration naturally concentrates the nutrients in the fruit pods to produce one of the most nutrient-dense fruit powders on the planet. This also means that Organic Baobab Fruit Powder is actually a completely raw fruit and 100% natural, having undergone no heat treatment, irradiation, spray-drying or freeze-drying. It is also non-GMO, preservative-free and additive-free.
