Parsnip Suppliers - Wholesale & Bulk

As demand grows for natural ingredients in soups, purees, and ready meals, parsnip suppliers provide dried forms such as dices, flakes, and powders. These products deliver mild sweetness, stable quality, and long shelf life, making them valuable for food manufacturers worldwide.

What is Parsnip?

Parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) is a root vegetable related to carrot and parsley. It has a pale cream color and a sweet, nutty flavor that intensifies after drying. Fresh parsnips are peeled, cut, and dehydrated to produce dices, flakes, and powders that maintain their characteristic taste and aroma.

Types, Varieties & Forms of Parsnip

• Parsnip dices: small pieces used in ready meals, soups, and stews.
• Parsnip flakes: lightweight product with fast rehydration, ideal for instant mixes.
• Parsnip powder: fine-textured form used in bakery products, sauces, and health blends.
• Often paired with Carrot Powder or Potato Flakes in vegetable mixes.

Harvest Season of Parsnip

Parsnips are harvested in late autumn and winter, after the first frost enhances their sweetness. In northern Europe and North America, the main harvest occurs from October to February, while in some milder climates supply extends longer. The roots are quickly processed into dried forms to maintain quality.
