Ascorbic Acid 250g

The Pure, Multi-Purpose Power of Vitamin C

Ascorbic Acid is the pure, isolated form of Vitamin C, a vital nutrient and powerful antioxidant. Our food-grade powder is a versatile kitchen and wellness staple, prized for its ability to naturally preserve food, prevent oxidation, and enhance nutritional profiles.

Unlike commercial food preservatives, this is a simple, clean-label ingredient that allows you to control what goes into your food. Whether you're a home canner, a baker, a cheese maker, or someone focused on holistic health, this jar of pure Vitamin C is an incredibly useful tool to have in your pantry.

Why Choose Our Ascorbic Acid Powder?

  • Natural Food Preservation: Significantly reduces oxidation (browning) in canned fruits, jams, and homemade sauces, extending their shelf life and colour.

  • Prevents Browning: A pinch in fruit salads, sliced apples, or avocado keeps them looking fresh and appetizing.

  • Cheese Making: Used in many recipes to help acidify milk, leading to better curd formation.

  • Baking & DIY Wellness: A small amount can be used to boost the Vitamin C content in smoothies or homemade supplements (always consult a professional for dosing).

  • 100% Pure & Food Grade: Contains no fillers, additives, or flow agents. Just pure, potent ascorbic acid.

Culinary & Practical Inspiration: How to Use Ascorbic Acid Powder

Unlock the preserving power of Vitamin C:

  • Home Canning & Jam Making: Add ¼ tsp per cup of fruit to prevent browning and preserve colour in jams, jellies, and canned fruits.

  • Fresh Fruit Prep: Dissolve a pinch in water and toss cut fruit (like apples or pears) to keep them from turning brown.

  • Cheese Making: A key ingredient in many ricotta, mozzarella, and other cheese recipes.

  • Baking: Sometimes used in baking to provide acidity that reacts with baking soda.

  • Antioxidant Boost: Note: Can be used in very small, measured amounts in wellness applications. Always seek professional advice for internal use.

How to Use: For preserving, dissolve the powder in a small amount of water before adding to your recipe. A little goes a very long way.

Important Note: This is a concentrated food-grade ingredient. For wellness purposes, always consult a healthcare professional for appropriate dosage. Keep out of reach of children.

Storage: Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place.
