What to know about Butterfly Pea Powder?

Our extract has all the qualities of a concentrated Butterfly Pea flower infusion. Our powder is obtained by dry spraying or “spray drying” in English. This is a natural method commonly used to produce milk or egg powder. This is also the most common process for extracting butterfly pea powder.

Our extract is Butterfly Pea infusion or tea that is filtered to remove solid residue. Then the solution is concentrated to remove most of the water. This concentrate is then sprayed into a special drying tower where hot air is blown to dry the suspended particles and form a fine bluish purple powder.

The extract powder obtained by this method can be used in a variety of food applications.
