1. Introduction to Gac Fruit Powder
Table of Contents
Red Gac Fruit Powder (Bột Gấc Đỏ) is derived from the perennial melon Momordica cochinchinensis, native to Southeast Asia and revered as the “Fruit from Heaven.” At Vinahugo, we transform the vibrant red aril of the Gac fruit into a nutrient-dense superfood using advanced Freeze-Drying (FD) technology.
Unlike traditional sun-drying methods that degrade sensitive nutrients, our freeze-drying process preserves the exceptionally high concentrations of Lycopene and Beta-Carotene, maintaining the fruit’s natural fatty acid profile and deep orange-red pigment in a convenient, concentrated powder.
