Clean-Label Raspberry Powder for Manufacturers

Why choose anthocyanin-rich freeze-dried raspberry powder for color and functional benefit?

Anthocyanin-rich freeze-dried raspberry powder is a concentrated, free-flowing ingredient that brings vivid pink/red color, tart flavor and concentrated antioxidant (anthocyanin) content into finished goods without artificial colorants. Because raspberries are freeze-dried at peak ripeness and milled into powder, the ingredient blends cleanly into dry mixes (cereals, snack powders), beverage formulations and nutraceutical capsules while preserving visual appeal and potency — a clear win for clean-label product lines and natural color applications.

What technical specs should I request for anthocyanin-rich freeze-dried raspberry powder?

• Appearance: Pink to light-red fine powder. 

• Flavor & Aroma: Concentrated raspberry profile (natural tartness). 

• Particle size: Powder (40–80 mesh options available — confirm mesh in RFQ). 

• Moisture content: ≤ 5% (confirm water activity on COA).

• Shelf life: Typical claim 24 months when stored dry and away from sunlight. 

• Additives: None by default — clean-label (no added sugar or preservatives).

• Packing (bulk): Inner double PE or aluminium-foil bag + five-layer corrugated cartons; retail pouch/OEM packing available. 

• MOQ (guideline): The product page lists 100 KGS as a starting MOQ; confirm for custom specs. 

• Certifications: Factory lists BRC, FDA, Kosher, Halal, HACCP, ISO (request certificate copies with RFQ).

Buyer tip: Always request a lot-specific COA (moisture, microbiology, and — if needed — anthocyanin/ORAC data) and specify mesh and packing to avoid acceptance surprises.

FAQ：

Q1 — Can I get samples for R&D? Who pays express freight?
Yes — evaluation samples are standard. Many suppliers provide small sample packs (100–300 g) and either charge express freight or credit it against the first paid order — confirm sample policy in your inquiry. 

Q2 — What trade terms do you offer — FOB or CIF?
Both are commonly supported. The site quotes FOB China or CIF to a named port on request; ask for both to compare landed cost. 

Q3 — What is typical lead time and how fast are stock orders shipped?
Stock orders are often completed within ~15 days; OEM/ODM orders typically take 25–30 days depending on quantity and customization — confirm production slot when you place an RFQ. 

Q4 — Are you a manufacturer and what factory credentials should I check?
Look for in-house freeze-drying capacity, GMP workshops, available production photos, and documented QC process (IQF pre-freezing records, batch COA, retention samples). Ask for recent audit reports (BRC/ISO) and line capacity if you plan scale. 

Q5 — What documentation is provided with shipments?
Typical shipment paperwork: COA, microbiology report, packing list, commercial invoice and export certificates on request — essential for customs clearance and retailer onboarding. 

Q6 — How to reduce color loss and oxidation in storage/transport?
Specify nitrogen flush, aluminium foil liners and UV-blocking outer cartons. Confirm storage recommendations and request stability data for your target temperature/humidity conditions.
