Production & Sourcing
Preparation: Fresh purple carrots are harvested and cleaned to remove any dirt or debris. They are then washed and trimmed to remove the tops and any unwanted parts.
Blending: The cleaned purple carrots are processed into a puree or juice by crushing or grinding them. This puree or juice is then carefully filtered to remove any solid particles and obtain a smooth liquid.
Spray Drying: The purple carrot puree or juice is fed into a spray dryer. Atomized droplets of carrot puree are then sprayed into a hot chamber, where they come into contact with hot air.
Drying Process: As the droplets of purple carrot liquid move through the hot chamber, the hot air rapidly evaporates the moisture, leaving behind dry particles of purple carrot.
And you have your Spray-Dried Purple Carrot Powder!
