Superfood • Natural Sweetener • Natural Food Color
The brightly-colored beetroot has become a popular natural sweetener due to its high sugar content. The intense red-purple color adds visual appeal to foods and beverages ranging from candy to vegan “meat”, replacing artificial colors. Beets pair well with carrots, spinach, and lemon peel.
Along with sweetness and bright color, dried beets are considered a “superfood.” They’re rich in vitamins and minerals and are a natural source of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), phytonutrients, fiber, manganese, potassium, iron, folate (vitamin B9), and vitamin C. Studies show that beets may support healthy circulation, blood pressure, inflammation response, and cognitive function.
Our dried beet powder, granules, and flakes are a colorful, flavorful, healthy addition to beverages, smoothies, sauces, snacks, baked goods, vegan “meat”, and nutritional supplement powders.
