Description: Carrot Powder is made from the dried roots of Daucus carota, a biennial plant widely cultivated across temperate regions. The plant grows slender, upright stems reaching 30–60 cm in height, with finely divided feathery leaves and edible roots that develop rich orange pigmentation. The harvested roots are naturally firm and fibrous, containing carotenoid pigments responsible for the deep orange colour of the powder.

When milled into powder, the roots retain their natural colour, slightly sweet aroma, and smooth texture. The powder has a fine, uniform consistency that allows it to be easily blended into culinary, creative, and educational applications. The vibrant colour and mild flavour of the carrot are preserved through careful drying and milling.

Mature carrot roots are harvested, washed thoroughly to remove soil and debris, and dried using controlled low-temperature or warm-air methods to maintain colour and natural characteristics. After drying, the roots are milled into a fine powder and sifted to ensure uniform particle size. This produces a clean, stable, plant-based ingredient suitable for a variety of formulations.

Uses: Carrot Powder is used in culinary preparations such as soups, sauces, baked goods, smoothies, and dry mixes where natural colour and mild vegetable flavour are desired. It is also used in natural colouring applications, botanical craft projects, decorative jar displays, and educational kits. The fine texture and bright orange hue make it suitable for creative and visual presentations requiring dried plant-based powders.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
