Products Description
Freeze Dried Acerola Cherry Powder is a clean-label fruit ingredient produced by low-temperature lyophilization. It is valued for its naturally occurring Vitamin C and phytonutrient profile, suitable for dietary supplements, functional foods, and beverage systems. Each batch is released with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and export documents.
Why Freeze-Dried Acerola (Compared with Heat Drying)
Freeze-drying removes water under vacuum at low temperature, which helps protect heat-sensitive components and preserves the fruit's sensory profile. This is why formulators choose freeze-dried acerola for:
- better retention of sensitive nutrients
- natural color and flavor
- low moisture for stability
Source & Traceability
We work with controlled supply chains and traceable batches from raw fruit to finished powder. Typical controls include:
- raw material inspection and lot tracking
- process records and in-process QC
- finished product testing and release by COA

Manufacturing Process
1. Washing & Sorting: Fruit is cleaned and visually/optically sorted.
2. Rapid Freezing: Frozen at ultra-low temperature to protect structure.
3. Lyophilization: Water is removed by sublimation under vacuum.
4. Milling & Sieving: Low-temperature milling for uniform powder.
5. Final QC & Packing: Tested to COA, then packed in protective materials.

Functional Properties (What It Does in Formulas)
Formulators use freeze-dried acerola powder to:
- contribute natural Vitamin C content
- provide natural fruit color and tangy flavor notes
- support "fruit-based / clean label" positioning
- support antioxidant-themed product concepts (where permitted)
> We do not provide medical claims. Product positioning and claims should follow local regulations and finished-product labeling rules.
Recommended Use Levels (Guidance)
Use level depends on target Vitamin C contribution, taste, and the formulation matrix:
- Capsules/Tablets/Powder blends: adjust to meet label target
- Beverage mixes / instant drinks: adjust for flavor and stability
- Gummies / confectionery: adjust for sensory profile and processing
If you share your application and target Vitamin C per serving, we can suggest a practical dosage range and provide an application note.
Health Benefits
* Potent Immune Support: The high concentration of natural Vitamin C is essential for the function of various immune cells and enhances the body's first line of defense.
* Powerful Antioxidant Protection: The combined action of Vitamin C, bioflavonoids, and carotenoids provides a robust defense against oxidative stress, helping to protect cells from free radical damage.
* Collagen Synthesis & Skin Health: Vitamin C is a vital cofactor in the production of collagen, the most abundant protein in the body, supporting skin elasticity, joint health, and wound healing.
* Enhanced Iron Absorption: Vitamin C converts plant-based iron (non-heme iron) into a form that is more easily absorbed by the body, making it a valuable addition to products targeting iron deficiency.
* Cardiovascular & Metabolic Support: The antioxidant properties contribute to the protection of LDL cholesterol from oxidation and support overall vascular health.
Applications
- Dietary supplements: capsules, tablets, effervescent powders, sachets
- Functional foods: nutrition bars, cereals, yogurt mixes, premixes
- Beverages: instant drink powders, smoothie blends
- Sports nutrition: antioxidant-themed blends and recovery concepts
- Confectionery: gummies, chews, chocolate inclusions
- Cosmetic formulations: antioxidant-themed concepts (where applicable)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Is this product carrier-free?
A: Carrier-free grade is available. If you need better flowability, we can also discuss carrier options.
Q2: How does freeze-dried powder compare to spray-dried in terms of Vitamin C?
A: Freeze-drying is vastly superior for nutrient preservation. Spray-drying exposes the product to high heat (inlet air often >150°C), which can degrade 30-50% of the natural Vitamin C. Our freeze-drying process operates at near-ambient temperatures, preserving over 95% of the original nutrient content.
Q3: Can you provide support for our product formulation?
A: Absolutely. Our technical team, with over 15 years of experience in nutraceutical formulation, is available to provide application notes, recommended usage levels, and technical data sheets to assist in your R&D process.
Q4: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our standard MOQ is one drum (25 kg). For sample requests or trial orders, please contact our sales team.
Q5: Do you provide formulation support?
A: Yes. We can provide recommended use guidance and application notes for tablets, drink mixes, gummies, etc.
Q6: How do I get price and lead time??
A: For the Freeze Dried Acerola Cherry Powder price, email us contact@joywinworld.com, with your target spec (Vitamin C %, mesh), quantity, packaging, and destination country.
