100% soluble – specifically formulated for clear & carbonated beverage applications
Loaded with electrolytes, vitamins and minerals, Baobab Fruit Powder is an ideal functional ingredient for beverages. Baobab Fruit Powder contains 15% insoluble dietary fiber and natural fruit pectin, a polysaccharide found in the plant cell walls. Both of these can contribute to a cloudy appearance when dissolved in water. By passing organic Baobab Fruit Powder through a process that both filters out the insoluble dietary fibers and breaks down the pectin, we have created Depectinized Baobab Powder. An innovative product that is completely free of any cloudiness, sedimentation or phase separation that typically occurs when Baobab Fruit Powder is mixed with water or single strength juices. Our Depectinized Baobab Powder is 100% water-soluble resulting in a completely clear drink, making it ideal for clear and carbonated beverage applications.
Nutrient Profile
Our Depectinized Baobab Powder retains all of the key nutrients of organic Baobab Fruit Powder. It is rich in Vitamin C, packed with Calcium, Iron, Magnesium and Potassium, and the prebiotic soluble dietary fiber (or pectin) that is so beneficial to gut health is still preserved. The production process does not remove the pectin, but negates the gelling effect and cloudiness of the pectin by breaking it down into smaller units. The only component that is actually removed is the insoluble plant fiber. This means that all of the key nutrition claims for Baobab Fruit Powder can also be made for Depectinized Baobab Powder.
Simply put, pure Baobab Fruit Powder has been transformed into an ingredient that is 100% soluble and presents as a clear liquid when dissolved in water.
