Dried Strawberry Seeds

STRAWBERRY SEEDS FOR FOOD

Dried strawberry seeds are 100% natural clean label products, without any additives and without any chemical processing. The seeds are obtained from strawberry pomace dried at high temperature and then subjected to a thorough cleaning process in order to obtain the highest quality product purity.

Dried strawberry seeds (Fragaria ananassa) are perfect as natural ingredients that improve the texture and appearance of the final product. The seeds are very small (around 1mm) and have a crispy texture. The dried seeds can be easily added at any stage of the manufacturing process. Dried strawberry seeds are microbiologically stable, thanks to which we can offer a long shelf life (2 years).

Poland is the second largest producer of strawberries in the European Union. Strawberries are one of the most popular fruit flavours in the food industry in the world, which is why the list of applications for dried strawberry seeds is very long. Indeed, it depends only on the creativity of the R&D departments of various food brands.

Nutritional value of strawberry seeds:

Raw strawberries are 91% water, 8% carbohydrates and 1% protein, and contain negligible fat. Strawberries contain a modest amount of essential unsaturated fatty acids in the strawberry seed oil. Although seeds comprise only about 1% of total weight of a fresh strawberry, they contribute 11% of the total polyphenol in the whole fruit. The phytochemicals found in strawberry seeds include ellagic acid, ellagic acid glycosides and ellagitannins. Strawberry seeds have high content of dietary fibre (around 55%) which aids in digestion and helps maintain bowel regularity. Fiber also promotes a feeling of fullness, which can be beneficial for weight management. While the protein content of strawberry seeds is relatively low, they still provide a small amount of plant-based protein which is essential for building and repairing tissues in the body. Strawberry seeds contain also antioxidants, including vitamin E and phenolic compounds. These antioxidants help protect the body against oxidative stress and may have anti-inflammatory effects. Moreover the seeds contain various minerals, including manganese, copper, and magnesium. These minerals are important for various bodily functions, such as bone health, enzyme activity, and energy production.
