The incredibly succulent fruit, which is protected by a thick skin, boasts a deliciously intense tropical flavour, comparable to a combination of lemon, guava and pineapple. Passion fruit powder is made by cutting the fruit in half, scooping out the flesh, and then drying at low temperatures in order to retain an optimum number of nutrients.
Passion fruit powder adds a yummy tropical sweet and sour flavour to smoothies. In addition to being very tasty, passion fruit offers many vital nutrients along with vitamins A and C, as well as a good source of potassium. Passion fruit is also a very good source of fiber, including low-methoxyl pectin.
The fiber in passion fruit may help maintain digestive and intestinal health.
Passion fruit powder contains small amounts of vitamins B1, B2, B6, C and K. It contains a selection of minerals including potassium, selenium, calcium, sodium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, protein and fiber.
