About Vita-Pakt Lime Flavedo

Flavedo is the technical name for the green-colored outermost layer of the lime peel. It is the part of the lime that contains natural oils, flavor esters, and the aromatic components of the fruit that deliver the distinct lime organoleptic notes you need to transform your food and beverage products.

Vita-Pakt Lime Flavedo is produced under the most rigorous guidelines in the world to ensure the value of the lime isn’t lost through processing. The lime cup is shaved after extraction from the fruit, and the remaining flavedo is then finely ground and combined with sugar and oil. The product does not contain any added artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors, only those naturally present in the peel, which is restored to its original levels before processing.

This Vita-Pakt citrus ingredient is high in polyphenols and vitamin C, an essential antioxidant that supports the immune system.
