About Product

Blackberry powder has a long history of use for its quality nourishing properties, dating back to ancient Greece and Rome.

The Greeks and Romans both believed that blackberries had unique properties and would use the powdered form of the fruit to support well-being.

The powder was also commonly used in teas and folk remedies throughout Europe.

In the early 20th century, blackberry powder became a popular ingredient in many tonics. Blackberry powder is still used in tea, jam, and other preparations.

Taste, smell, texture, and color may vary from batch to batch: Due to its nature, this powder tends to clump. If clumping occurs, lay the bag on a flat surface and place a towel over the bag. Then pound on the bag until the clumps break up. The towel will help protect the bag from damage. Push as much air as possible before sealing the pouch and store in the refrigerator or freezer to further reduce clumping.

Suggested Use: Mix one tablespoon with juice and yogurt, or add to your favorite smoothie or recipes.

Mixing suggestion: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combined with our organic blueberry, strawberry, and raspberry powders.
