Vegan Ingredients
Both wax free and organic ingredients are suitable for a vegan diet.
Conventional versus Organic
For the ultimate unadulterated ingredient, our certified organic citrus is superior in its own right. Permitted to be grown with natural fertilizers only (composts, manure, meals), organic-approved herbicides, and naturally derived pesticides, the consumer of organic ingredients can be assured that they are eating a healthier food without detrimental effect upon the environment, fauna, and flora, and one’s own health.
Quality Assurance
Our high standards of care and internal monitoring system ensures we continuously maintain and produce safe and desirable ingredients for our customers. Whilst whole fruits are routinely selected for pesticide analysis, our end ingredients are randomly chosen for microbiological testing at a UKAS accredited laboratory.
Citrus Zests
As standard, zests are manufactured in either strips or crumbs, however, by request we can also supply long strips. Individual bagged weights held in stock are either 0.5kg or 2.0kg, lesser or greater quantities are available upon request
Strips – Lemon
Crumbs – Pink Grapefruit
Strips – Lime
Long strips – Orange
Manufactured from the outer layer of peel, our fine quality zests contain the fruit’s essential aromatic oils along with a minimum layer of pith – the albedo – which is packed full of super-flavonoids
Citrus Pulps and Juices
Purely extracted and completely natural
Individual container volumes held in stock are either 0.5 litre or 5.0 litre, other volumes are available upon request
Orange Pulp
0.5 litre bottles
Lemon Juice
Citrus Pulp
Made by extracting the ‘pulp vesicles’ from the inside of the whole fruit. Our processing method produces a pulp thicker in texture than a juice and may include the slight bitter taste of peel with a typical citrus flavour.
Citrus Juices
Made by removing the liquid from the fruit, producing a fresh, fine quality juice without taint.
Pink Grapefruit Juice
Lime Pulp
