Through the expertise of dried pomelo suppliers, this citrus fruit reaches global markets as a sweet and tangy dried ingredient for snacks and food manufacturing.
Dried pomelo is made by removing moisture from the large citrus fruit pomelo (Citrus maxima). The result is a chewy fruit with a sweet-sour flavor profile and mild bitterness, often coated with sugar to balance taste. It is used in snack products, confectionery, trail mixes, and baked goods.
Pomelo harvest occurs mainly from October to February in Asia. The fruit is collected during cooler months, processed, and stabilized by drying for year-round availability in industrial applications.
Dried pomelo is a popular ingredient in candied fruit assortments, often used alongside dried lemon peel and dried orange peel in bakery and confectionery industries. With increasing consumer interest in exotic and citrus-based snacks, dried pomelo is carving out a place in both retail and industrial markets.
Suppliers typically provide bulk pomelo peel strips, cubes, or slices in 10–20 kg cartons. Bulk formats allow manufacturers to maintain consistent flavor and cost efficiency.
Private label options include jars, resealable pouches, and sachets, enabling brands to market candied or dried pomelo in consumer-friendly packaging.
Organic pomelo is cultivated without synthetic pesticides and processed under EU Organic or USDA Organic certification. Organic formats are niche but gaining interest among clean-label brands.
