Brazilian fruits processed into powder enrich food
Brazilian fruits are famous worldwide for the exotic flavors and large amount of nutrients.
When we go to open air markets and supermarkets, we come across a huge range of fruits. But that easy access has not made these products to be widely consumed, did you know?
According to a research by Datafolha, commissioned by Abrafrutas, in Brazil, the third largest fruit producer in the world, only 40% of Brazilians consume this kind of food. This part of the population is mainly concentrated in the Southeast region, has a high schooling level and belongs to classes A and B.
Each fruit has its range of benefits, but in general, they are rich in essential vitamins and minerals our body needs to stay healthy, such as potassium and vitamin C. Fruits also have fibers, nutrients that help the bowel function.
The consumption of fruits from Brazil and from the world takes many forms: in natura, pulp juices, liqueurs, jams, among many other forms.
And did you know that there is another way of consuming Brazilian fruits that you may have not even realized? We will explain it in this article!
Brazilian fruit powder: have you heard of it?
Our country’s nature is very rich, and fruits can be extracted from it to give a special flavor to everyday food and free the population from industrialized products, which are rich in bad fats and low in vitamins.
Willing to spread this concept and meet Brazilians’ demand for more natural and preservative-free products, Blue Macaw Flora has decided to transform Brazilian fruits into powder and offer it as an input to the food and beverage industries around the world.
The company’s drying spray process for fruit powder processing maintains the fruit’s characteristics (flavor, color, and aroma) as well as nutritional properties (vitamin and fiber content).
In addition, the product is GMO Free, which means it has no preservatives, flavorings or artificial colorings.
Blue Macaw Flora’s Brazilian fruits are available in the following flavors: pineapple, acai, acerola, banana, camu camu, cupuacu, guava, graviola, mango, and passion fruit.
When they arrive at the food industries, these ingredients, also known as dehydrated fruit pulps, become the basic ingredient for the production of beverages, breads, cakes, food supplements, and other recipes that cannot be left out the table of those who demand a healthier and more natural diet.
Besides the flavors in its portfolio, Blue Macaw Flora is always looking for good partnerships to develop new projects and new flavors, especially because of the range of Brazilian fruits!
