Beet powder

Product overview of dried beet powder
Beets are drawing worldwide attention as a health-oriented ingredient for their vivid reddish-purple and distinctive sweetness. In particular, Kyoto-produced beets are distinguished by a rich flavor and natural sweetness born of the soil and climate. Dried beet powder is a product that seals in the color and flavor as they are by carefully drying and grinding such fresh beets.
The greatest appeal of dried beet powder is the balance of good coloring and sweetness. Because it is resistant to color loss even when heated, it is easy to use for diverse purposes such as food processing, beverages, and sweets. Beets are rich in iron and dietary fiber, making them ideal for product development aimed at the health-conscious consumer segment.
Because it is finished to a mild taste that does not let you feel the earthy note characteristic of beets, it is easy to use even in powder form, allowing natural coloring of dishes and drinks. Especially in products that call for a vividly colored finish, such as dairy products, baked goods, and smoothies, it is valued as a naturally derived colorant.
