Description

Baobab Super fruit Powder
Baobab fruit are super fruit! The baobab fruit powder is eaten to boost health and vitality. The powder can be used as a superfood supplement and is easily mixed into smoothies, green juices, breakfast cereals as well as being used as an ingredient in a variety of recipes.

The baobab fruit is one of the few fruits to dry out completely while still on the tree. The pods are only harvested when they fall to the ground and they only fall when they are completely dried out.

This means that the powder requires minimal handling and processing so it retains all its nutritional qualities. The powder is separated from the seeds (which are pressed to get Baobab oil) and then sieve it to give it the wonderfully fine, silky textured powder which mixes easily into foods and drinks that EcoProducts has become known for.
