What it is

Elderberry powder is made from the dark purple berries of the elder tree. The berries are typically dried and then ground into a fine powder. Elderberries have been used for centuries in traditional remedies.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use elderberry powder for its deep color and distinct tart, fruity flavor. It is often added to beverages like juices and sparkling drinks, as well as to chocolates and other confectionery. It can also contribute to the overall flavor profile of fruit-based products.

Health notes

Elderberry is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Some studies suggest elderberry may support immune function, though more research is needed. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has not established a specific opinion on elderberry powder as a food ingredient. Evidence on health benefits is still developing.

Allergen info

Elderberry powder is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
