About Product

Freeze-dried Tart Cherry powder comes from Organic sour cherries, a Prunus species native to Europe and North America.

The small, dark-red fruit has been cultivated and consumed since ancient times and is renowned for its unique sweet-tart flavor.

Tart cherry powder is made by freeze-drying and milling tart cherries, which retains the fruit’s beneficial nutrients and compounds. Tart cherries are a source of plant compounds called anthocyanins.

Tart cherry powder is also a vitamin C, manganese, copper, and dietary fiber source. In addition, tart cherries are thought to contain constituents with many unique qualities for athletes.

Tart cherry powder can be used as an ingredient in smoothies, baked goods, and other foods.

Constituents of Tart Cherries include:

Minerals: Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zinc, Copper, Manganese,
Vitamins: Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Pantothenic Acid, Vitamin B-6, Folate, Choline, Vitamin A (RAE), Beta carotene, Vitamin A (IU), Lutein & Zeaxanthin, Vitamin E (Alpha), Vitamin K
Anthocyanidins: Peonidin, Cyanidin
Flavan-3-ols: Catechin, Epicatechin
Flavonols: Kaempferol, Quercetin, Isorhamnetin

This product is 100% natural and minimally processed. Taste, smell, texture, and color vary from batch to batch. Due to its nature, this powder tends to clump. If clumping occurs, lay the bag on a flat surface and place a towel over the bag. Then pound on the bag until the clumps break up. The towel will help protect the bag from damage. To further reduce clumping, push as much air as possible before sealing the pouch and store in the refrigerator or freezer.

Suggested Use: Mix one tablespoon with juice and yogurt or add to your favorite smoothie. We recommend refrigerating this product to maintain freshness.

Mixing Suggestions: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combined with our organic extra-rich cacao powder.

Botanical Name: Prunus cerasus.

Other Names: sour cherry, wild cherry, pie cherry, tart cherry juice, Montmorency cherry, Balaton cherry

Parts Used: Whole Cherry (No Seed).

Ingredients: Organic Freeze-Dried Tart Cherries, Silicon Dioxide.*
*This product contains a small amount of silicon dioxide, which acts as a drying agent and is necessary to keep this powder from clumping into hard chunks or one solid brick.

Origin: Grown and freeze-dried in the USA and packaged with care in Florida, USA.

How to Maintain Optimum Freshness

This product is packaged in airtight stand-up, resealable foil pouches for optimum freshness.
