Organic Dragon Fruit / Pitaya Powder

The sweet and sour tasting dragon fruit – pitaya or pitahaya – belongs to the cacti family. It owes its name “dragon fruit” to its pericarp of scale-like lobes reminiscent of a dragon’s scales.

The pitaya has its intense pink colour due to its high natural content of beta-carotene and betalain. In addition to these plant pigments and a high fibre content, the fruit has a variety of other nutrients to offer, including: B vitamins, vitamins C and E, iron, calcium, and phosphorus.

 

 

The red dragon fruits processed in this powder are gently freeze-dried and gently ground to preserve the full active ingredient content and the full-bodied aroma of the pitaya.

Dragon fruit is suitable for refining yoghurt, porridge, muesli, juice, smoothies, and for baking.
