Premium Dried Pomelo Peel – The Aromatic Essence of Wellness and Beauty

1. Introduction to Dried Pomelo Peel

Dried Pomelo Peel is derived from the thick, nutrient-rich outer layer of the Citrus maxima fruit. Traditionally valued in Asian culture for its high essential oil content and therapeutic properties, it is now a sought-after ingredient in the global functional food and natural cosmetic industries.

At Vinahugo, we offer two primary types: Soft Dried Pomelo Peel (a ready-to-eat healthy snack) and Dried Pomelo Peel Strips (for herbal infusions, essential oil extraction, and hair care). We utilize low-temperature drying to ensure the delicate flavonoids and citrus aromas are perfectly preserved.

2. Product Varieties

• Soft Dried Pomelo Peel (Chewy): Sliced and gently dried with a touch of sugar or honey. It retains a flexible texture and a refreshing sweet-tart flavor with a hint of natural bitterness.

• Dehydrated Pomelo Peel Strips: 100% pure, unsweetened peels. Used primarily for brewing medicinal teas, steam baths, or as a raw material for extraction.

• Pomelo Peel Powder: Finely ground dried peels, ideal for use in spice blends, herbal supplements, or natural exfoliating face masks.
