Ingredient Origin: Red-Flesh Dragon Fruit – Rich in Betalain and Fiber

Red-flesh dragon fruit (Hylocereus costaricensis) is a tropical species known for its intense color and high content of betalains, vitamin C, and soluble fiber. Fruits are harvested at their peak ripeness with a natural sugar level (°Brix) ranging from 13-16, ensuring a pleasant sweet-tart taste and rich nutrition.

This fruit also contains magnesium, lycopene, polyphenols, and light organic acids, making it a standout among tropical functional fruits.

AD Drying Technology: Nutrient Retention & Sensory Appeal

The product is processed using indirect Air Drying (AD) at a stable temperature of 50-60°C. This allows for gentle drying while preserving heat-sensitive compounds like betalains, vitamin C, and antioxidant enzymes.

Post-drying, the moisture level is maintained at 17%, delivering a soft and chewy texture – not brittle or overly dry. The vibrant red hue is also well-preserved thanks to low oxidation during drying.
