Vivid pitaya fruit cubes are brightly colored, lightweight pieces of dragon fruit (pitaya) produced by controlled vacuum freeze-drying. They retain intense colour, a delicate tropical aroma and a crunchy mouthfeel while remaining free of added sugar or preservatives — making them ideal for cereal inclusions, smoothie bowls, snack mixes, confectionery toppers and premium beverage garnishes. The frozen-to-vacuum process concentrates nutrients and lowers shipping weight compared with fresh fruit, improving landed cost and formulation reliability for global brands.

Q — Can I order samples for R&D? Who covers express freight?
A — Yes. Suppliers typically provide evaluation samples (100–300 g). Sample product is usually provided while express courier fees are charged to the buyer and can often be credited against a first paid order — confirm the exact sample policy in writing.
Q — Are you a manufacturer or a trader? What factory evidence should I request?
A — Prefer factory-direct suppliers. Ask for photos/video of freeze-dry lines, IQF pre-freeze records, the factory’s in-house lab test results, current audit reports (BRC/ISO/HACCP) and retention-sample policy to validate traceability. The product page highlights direct manufacturer benefits and full QC flow.
Q — Which trade terms do you quote — FOB or CIF — and which is better for me?
A — Both FOB (you nominate forwarder) and CIF (supplier arranges freight + insurance) are standard. For first orders request both quotes and compare landed cost; for pilots consider LCL/mixed-load consolidation to reduce per-SKU freight.
Traceable sourcing: contracted farms + IQF → freeze-dry → pack workflow for repeatable colour and smell across lots.
Audit & certification support: scanned BRC/HACCP/ISO/FDA and Halal/Kosher packs to speed importer and retailer approvals.
Flexible OEM packing: retail pouches, bulk 5 kg aluminium-foil bag formats, private-label printing and nitrogen flush options to protect pigment and extend shelf life.
Logistics & commercial help: side-by-side FOB/CIF cost comparisons, mixed-SKU consolidation, and packing trials to reach your breakage and colour KPIs.
