What it is

Lime powder is made from dried limes that have been ground into a fine powder. The drying process concentrates the natural flavor and aroma of the lime.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use lime powder to add a bright, tart citrus flavor to a wide variety of foods. It is commonly found in snack foods like chips and popcorn, as well as in seasonings, marinades, and desserts.

Health notes

Lime powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a flavoring agent. It is a natural source of vitamin C, though amounts in food are typically small. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated lime and its derivatives, but no specific health concerns are associated with its typical use in food.

Allergen info

Lime powder is not derived from any of the FDA's major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
