Sustainably Sourced and Processed

Vita-Pakt Lime Flavedo is naturally sourced from Persian and Key Lime varieties primarily grown in Mexico and California. Our lime trees are tended by multigenerational farmers committed to sustainability. The limes are harvested at peak maturity to ensure the best flavor.

All the limes we process are rescued from conventional food waste streams and upcycled. This allows us to maximize our resources and reduce our environmental burden. We transform imperfect fruit products into valuable ingredients like our Lime Flavedo.

A High-Quality Citrus Ingredient

Flavedo is the technical term for the outermost, colored layer of the lime peel, excluding the bitter white pith. It contains much of the flavor, essential oils, and nutrition found in the lime fruit. Our facilities adhere to the most stringent guidelines in the world to ensure these characteristics are not lost during processing. After the peel is shaved, the flavedo is finely ground and combined with sugar and oil. This creates a sweetened lime zest that pairs well with a wide range of food and beverages. It does not contain artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors.

Vita-Pakt Lime Flavedo is also packed with nutritional value. It features various macro and micronutrients, including vitamin C, which is essential for immune health. This citrus ingredient also contains dietary fiber, a crucial nutrient that supports a healthy gut. Use Product No. 347 in your food and beverages to help consumers reap the benefits!
