Bulk Fig Powder Supplier — Freeze-Dried Whole-Fruit Fig Fruit Powder (Ficus carica), Conventional & USDA / EU Organic, B2B Wholesale

Written by Jonathan, Valeherb · Reviewed by Dr. Xiaoyan Qiu · Updated June 2026

Valeherb supplies fig powder (also called fig fruit powder or anjeer powder, Ficus carica) in bulk wholesale as a freeze-dried whole-fruit powder — 100% real fig, with no carrier and nothing added. It is offered in two versions: conventional and certified organic (USDA NOP & EU). This is the dried fig fruit, not fig leaf and not a standardized extract. Fig is a high-sugar, high-fibre fruit, so the notes below cover its natural sweetness, its colour, and one enzyme worth knowing about.

Conventional & Organic — One Powder, Two Certifications

We make a single fig powder — freeze-dried whole fruit, milled, with nothing added — and offer it conventional or certified organic. The powder itself is the same; the difference is the certification and the supply chain behind it. Freeze-drying is used because it dries the fruit at low temperature and keeps the most colour and flavour.

Fig Fruit Powder vs Fig Leaf Powder: Which One?

“Fig powder” can mean a few different things, so this is worth getting right before you order.

• Fig fruit powder (Ficus carica). The dried, milled fruit. This is what we sell — sweet and rich. “Fig powder,” “fig fruit powder,” “dried fig powder,” and “anjeer powder” all mean this.
• Fig leaf powder is a different plant part. Fig leaf is used in teas and traditional products and is often searched alongside blood-sugar interest. It is not the fruit, and we supply the fruit.
• Fig bark / tree bark powder is also a different plant part. Not something we supply.
• Not the white “powder” on a fiddle-leaf fig houseplant. That is a pest or mildew issue on an ornamental Ficus and has nothing to do with a food fig powder.
• Not a makeup shade or a face cleanser. Ours is plain fig fruit, nothing added.

Colour, Sugar & the Fig Enzyme

A few fig-specific things shape how the powder behaves. Colour depends on the variety: dark-skinned figs carry anthocyanins, mainly cyanidin-3-O-rutinoside, which give a pink to red-brown tone, while pale and green figs are more amber.^[1] Freeze-drying at low temperature keeps the fruit’s colour and flavour close to fresh; anthocyanins are heat-sensitive, which is one reason the fruit is freeze-dried rather than dried with high heat.^[2] Because figs are high in sugar, the powder is sweet and hygroscopic and can cake, so sealed, dry storage matters. Finally, figs naturally contain ficin, a protein-digesting enzyme — the same kind of enzyme that lets fresh figs tenderise meat — so, like fresh kiwi or pineapple, an unheated fig powder can stop gelatin setting and may soften dairy proteins; tell us if your set or texture matters and we can advise.

Nutritional Composition (Naturally Occurring)

As a freeze-dried whole-fruit powder, fig powder carries the fruit’s natural parts. Levels move with variety, ripeness, season, and harvest, so the list below describes what the fruit naturally contains rather than guaranteed standardized values.

• Dietary fibre — figs are naturally high in fibre, and the whole-fruit powder keeps the skin and seeds^[1]
• Natural fruit sugars — figs are naturally very sweet^[2]
• Minerals — figs are a notable plant source of calcium, with manganese and potassium also present^[1]
• Polyphenols and anthocyanins — naturally present, with cyanidin-3-O-rutinoside the main anthocyanin of dark figs^[1]

Sourcing & QC Criteria

Regulatory Guidance

• United States: fig is an established food — food use for food applications, and DSHEA for supplements. The organic version requires USDA NOP certification covering the raw fruit and the processing facility. FDA-registered facility (21 CFR Part 111) for supplement supply
• European Union: established food use (not a novel food); the organic version requires EU Organic certification (EU 2018/848). For cosmetic use, the INCI sits under Ficus carica (e.g. Ficus Carica (Fig) Fruit Extract) — confirm the exact INCI for the form
• China: fig (无花果) is a common, established food; supplied with full export documentation and organic certification where required
