Apricot Powder
Original price was: $ 5.06.$ 4.94Current price is: $ 4.94.
Apricot powder is a dehydrated, finely ground form of apricot fruit, retaining much of the natural flavor, aroma, and nutritional properties of fresh apricots. It is typically made by drying fresh apricots through spray drying, freeze drying, or drum drying, then milling into a fine powder. Apricot powder is rich in vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and antioxidants such as beta-carotene and vitamin C. It is widely used as a natural flavoring agent, colorant, and nutritional supplement in food and beverage products, as well as in cosmetics and dietary supplements. Its convenient powdered form allows for easy incorporation into dry mixes and processed goods without the perishability of fresh fruit.
