Technical Note

Acerola Cherry Powder is derived from natural acerola cherries and contains high levels of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and natural sugars (such as fructose and glucose). Due to these characteristics, the product is hygroscopic (moisture-absorbing).

Under conditions of humidity or temperature fluctuations, natural crystallization of vitamin C or sugars may occur. This may appear as small white crystals or specks dispersed within the powder.

This phenomenon is a natural physical change and:

• Is not contamination

• Is not caused by microorganisms or mold

• Does not affect product quality, safety, or nutritional value 

---

Storage Conditions

• Store in a cool, dry place at temperatures below 25°C

• Protect from moisture and direct sunlight

• Keep packaging tightly sealed after use

• Shelf Life: 18 months
