Why camu camu for natural vitamin C?

Camu camu is used where a formulator wants a whole-fruit, naturally occurring vitamin C that can carry a clean-label claim. Our 7% and 12% grades reach their assay by concentrating the fruit itself — the TDS states "naturally occurring — no ascorbic acid added" — which is the line that separates a food-source vitamin C from a fortified powder. The 2% and 3% grades exist for the opposite case: beverages and blends where camu camu is the flavour and the vitamin C is a bonus rather than the label claim.

Compared with acerola, camu camu is more tart and more astringent, so in beverages it is usually dosed lower or paired with a sweeter base; in capsules and tablets the assay per gram is what matters, and the 12% grade is the efficient choice. Our acerola vs camu camu guide compares the two side by side.

Is the vitamin C in your camu camu powder natural?

Yes. The 7% and 12% grades are standardized by concentrating the fruit; the specification states "naturally occurring — no ascorbic acid added". Vitamin C is confirmed by titration (USP) on every lot and stated on the batch COA.

What are the heavy-metal and ethylene-oxide limits for your camu camu powder?

Lead (Pb) ≤ 0.25 mg/kg, cadmium (Cd) ≤ 0.25 mg/kg, inorganic arsenic ≤ 0.75 mg/kg and mercury (Hg) ≤ 0.75 mg/kg by ICP-MS (USP <730>), with pesticide residues compliant by QuEChERS. The powder is not treated with ethylene oxide (EtO) and is not irradiated. Microbiology: total plate count ≤ 10,000 CFU/g, yeasts and moulds ≤ 1,000 CFU/g, total coliforms ≤ 100 CFU/g, E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella negative.

What is the carrier in spray-dried camu camu powder?

Cassava (tapioca) flour maltodextrin, a non-GMO, gluten-free carrier. The ingredient statement is "camu camu purée and cassava flour maltodextrin" — no added sugar, colour, preservative or anticaking agent.

Is camu camu powder certified organic?

Yes. The 7% and 12% grades are supplied as USDA-NOP organic (NOP ID 6220008042) with EU 2018/848 equivalence, Kosher and Non-GMO; conventional versions are available on request.

What is the shelf life and packaging?

24 months from manufacture, in 25 kg fibre drums with a food-grade PE liner, stored cool, dry and dark (≤ 25 °C, RH ≤ 65%).

Camu camu or acerola — which natural vitamin C should I use?

Acerola is milder and available freeze-dried as 100% fruit; camu camu is more tart and reaches a higher assay in spray-dried form (up to 12%). For capsules and tablets, assay per gram decides; for beverages, taste and dosing decide. Both are available organic from the same supplier, so many brands run both.
