Blueberry Flakes

Blueberry flakes are made from dried blueberries that have been processed into small pieces or flakes. This process helps to preserve the flavor and color of the blueberries while making them easier to incorporate into various food products.

Manufacturers use blueberry flakes to add natural blueberry flavor, color, and texture to foods. They are commonly found in baked goods like muffins and biscuits, breakfast items such as cereal and pancakes, and frozen meals.

Blueberry flakes are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of natural sugars, fiber, and antioxidants found in blueberries. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated blueberry and its components, but no specific health concerns are associated with typical consumption levels of blueberry flakes.
