Technical Data Sheet

Product Description


Freeze-dried Camu-Camu is a product obtained from the camu-camu fruit (Myrciaria dubia), a plant species native to the Amazon region. It is produced through the freeze-drying of the ripe fruit, where water is removed by sublimation, resulting in a concentrated product. Freeze-dried Camu-Camu is characterized by maintaining most of its original properties, including color, flavor and fruity aroma, as well as its richness in beneficial compounds such as vitamin C and other nutrients. The texture of the fruit may become more brittle and crunchy due to the drying process, while its nutritional and sensory characteristics are preserved.
