What it is

Acerola puree concentrate is made from acerola cherries, a tropical fruit native to South America and the Caribbean. The fruit is processed to remove water and create a concentrated puree, which intensifies its flavor and nutrient content.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use acerola puree concentrate primarily as a natural source of vitamin C and for its tart, fruity flavor. It is often added to beverages, yogurts, and fruit-based snacks to enhance their nutritional profile and taste.

Health notes

Acerola is a natural source of vitamin C. The FDA recognizes acerola extract as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) for use in food. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated acerola and its components. At typical consumption levels found in foods, it is considered safe.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Acerola is a fruit and does not contain gluten.
