Bulk Kiwi Powder & Kiwi Fruit Powder Supplier — Freeze-Dried Whole-Fruit (Green Kiwi, Actinidia deliciosa) & Spray-Dried Juice, USDA & EU Organic Available, B2B Wholesale

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

Valeherb supplies kiwi powder (also called kiwi fruit powder, Actinidia deliciosa) in bulk wholesale, made from 100% real green kiwifruit — not a “strawberry kiwi” flavour mix and not a standardized extract. Two grades are available: a freeze-dried whole-fruit powder (Organic available) and a spray-dried juice powder with maltodextrin. Below: a quick-spec panel, the two grades side by side, the freeze-dried vs spray-dried decision, and full sourcing criteria.

SUPPLIER NOTE
This is a whole-fruit food ingredient made from real green kiwifruit — not a “strawberry kiwi” flavoured drink mix, not a standardized digestive extract, and not a synthetic flavour. The green colour is natural chlorophyll and can shift toward olive if it is over-heated. Note that kiwi is a recognized food allergen and should be declared on finished products. The values below describe the natural fruit and vary by cultivar, ripeness, season, and drying method.

Our Two Grades

The drying method is the main decision. It changes the colour, how much vitamin C survives, the texture, how it dissolves, and the label. Both grades start from real green kiwifruit. Only the freeze-dried grade is available organic.

Freeze-Dried Whole-Fruit Powder Spray-Dried Juice Powder
Made from Whole ripe green kiwifruit, including the tiny black seeds Kiwi juice
Carrier None — 100% fruit Contains maltodextrin carrier
Mesh options Fine (powder) or coarse (visible fruit pieces) Fine, free-flowing
Colour & flavour Brightest natural green and fullest sweet-tart flavour Green; milder, a bit paler
Vitamin C & colour Highest retention — closest to fresh fruit on a dry-matter basis Held with the carrier; vitamin C lower than freeze-dried
Solubility Disperses in cold water; some natural fruit fibre and seed specks Dissolves clear and fast; made for drinks
Organic USDA NOP & EU Organic available Conventional only
Single-ingredient label Yes — 100% kiwi No — maltodextrin is declared
Choose freeze-dried whole-fruit if…you want the brightest green colour and fullest flavour, the highest vitamin-C retention, a single-ingredient 100%-fruit label, an organic option, or coarse pieces with visible seed specks for bars and granola.
Choose spray-dried juice if…you need it to dissolve clear in a drink with no lumps, and you are fine with a maltodextrin carrier on the label.

Green Kiwi, Gold Kiwi, Extract: Which Kiwi Powder?

“Kiwi powder” covers a few different products, and they are not interchangeable. Here is how they sort out.

  • Green kiwi fruit powder (Actinidia deliciosa, Hayward). The dried, milled green fruit. This is what we sell. “Kiwi powder” and “kiwi fruit powder” usually mean this — green, tangy, with tiny black seed specks.
  • Gold kiwi powder (Actinidia chinensis, such as SunGold). A different variety: yellow flesh, sweeter and milder, with a gold colour from carotenoids rather than chlorophyll. Available on request, but green is our default.
  • Juice powder. The pressed juice dried onto a carrier. We make this too.
  • Standardized “digestive” kiwi powders and extracts are different products. Branded ingredients such as Actazin or Livaux are standardized for gut-health use, and an extract powder is concentrated. We sell food-grade whole-fruit and juice powder, not extracts.
  • Not a protein powder or a flavoured drink mix. “Strawberry kiwi” protein, electrolyte, and drink powders are flavour blends, and kiwi is not a protein source. Ours is real single-fruit kiwi.
PLEASE NOTE
Many kiwi searches are about digestion, constipation, immune support, or skin. Those uses are usually tied to standardized kiwi ingredients (such as Actazin or Livaux) and finished supplements that are dosed and studied for that purpose — not to a food-grade fruit powder. We supply the food ingredient and do not make health claims. If your product needs a particular vitamin C level, ask us and we’ll confirm what we can document per lot.

Drying Method, Colour & the Actinidin Enzyme

For a fruit powder, the drying method — not a standardized assay — is what most affects quality. Kiwi’s green comes from chlorophyll,[1] which is sensitive to heat, acid, and light and turns olive or brown if it is pushed too hard. Our freeze-dried grade dries the whole fruit at low temperature with no carrier and keeps the green and vitamin C closest to fresh; freeze-drying has been shown to best preserve kiwi colour and vitamin C.[2] Kiwi juice is sugar- and acid-rich and sticky, so the spray-dried juice grade uses a maltodextrin carrier. Green kiwi also naturally contains actinidin, an enzyme that breaks down gelatin and other proteins,[1] so an un-heated kiwi powder can stop gelatin setting and soften proteins in uncooked dairy; heat reduces this, so raw and heat-treated applications behave differently.


Nutritional Composition (Naturally Occurring)

As a whole-fruit powder, kiwi powder carries the fruit’s natural parts. Levels move with cultivar, ripeness, season, and drying method, so the list below is what the fruit naturally contains rather than guaranteed standardized values.

  • Vitamin C — kiwi is one of the richest fruit sources, and it is best kept in the freeze-dried grade[1]
  • Chlorophyll — the natural green pigment of green kiwi, which also works as a colour contribution[1]
  • Actinidin — a naturally occurring protein-digesting enzyme; relevant for how the powder behaves in gelatin and dairy[1]
  • Fibre, vitamin E and potassium — naturally present in the whole fruit, with fibre higher in the freeze-dried whole-fruit grade
FORMULATOR TIP
Green is the thing to protect. Keep heat and light low to hold the colour, and expect a shift toward olive in long, hot bakes. The freeze-dried grade gives the most vitamin C and a clean single-ingredient label; the spray-dried juice grade is the easy choice for clear drinks. One more check: because raw kiwi powder has active actinidin, test it in any gelatin or uncooked-dairy system before scaling, or specify a heat-treated lot.

Applications by Category

  • Beverages, drink mixes & shots: spray-dried juice powder for fast, clear dispersion, a natural green colour, and a bright tangy note
  • Supplements, capsules & sachets: a vitamin-C-rich whole-fruit ingredient for clean-label blends; pairs with other fruit and greens powders
  • Bakery & snacks: freeze-dried coarse powder for visible green pieces and seed specks; keep heat low or surface-applied to hold the colour
  • Dairy & frozen: yogurt, ice cream, and plant-based formats; test in uncooked dairy because of actinidin, or use a heat-treated lot
  • Natural colour & flavour: one of the few real-fruit natural greens, plus true kiwi flavour, for clean-label use where permitted
  • Nutrition & greens blends: colour, flavour, and whole-fruit solids for fruit and greens powders

Sourcing & QC Criteria

Parameter What to verify Why it matters
Variety & form Green (Actinidia deliciosa) whole-fruit or juice powder — not gold, extract, or seed powder Variety sets colour, flavour, and actinidin level; form sets composition and price
Grade & carrier Freeze-dried (100% fruit, no carrier) vs spray-dried (maltodextrin declared) Sets colour, retention, solubility, and label — single-ingredient vs declared carrier
Drying method Freeze-dried vs spray-dried — documented Directly drives vitamin-C retention and how well the green colour holds
Organic certification USDA NOP and/or EU Organic (EU 2018/848) covering the fruit and the processing facility Both the source and the processing must be certified for an organic claim
Allergen & microbiology Kiwi allergen declaration; TPC, yeast & mould, E. coli, Salmonella; ICP-MS (Pb, As, Cd, Hg) per batch Kiwi is a recognized allergen, plus core food-grade requirements for a low-process powder
Pesticides Multi-residue screen for conventional grades; organic grades controlled via certification audit Market-entry requirement for EU / US / Japan

Regulatory Guidance

  • United States: kiwi is an established food — food use for food applications, and DSHEA for supplements. Kiwi is a recognized food allergen and must be declared. Organic grades require 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); kiwi is a declarable allergen. Organic grades require EU Organic certification (EU 2018/848). For cosmetic use, the INCI sits under Actinidia (e.g. Actinidia Chinensis (Kiwi) Fruit Extract) — confirm the exact INCI for the form
  • China: kiwifruit (míhóutáo, native to China) is a common, established food; supplied with full export documentation and organic certification where required
FOR BRANDS
This page describes a raw food ingredient and the fruit’s naturally occurring constituents. It does not make, or pre-substantiate, any finished-product health claim. Digestion, gut, immune, vitamin-C, and skin claims are the brand’s responsibility to substantiate and label compliantly — and are generally tied to standardized kiwi ingredients and supplements, not to a food-grade whole-fruit powder. Kiwi is an allergen and must be declared.

FAQ

A1:Kiwi powder tastes bright and sweet-tart, with the same tangy, slightly tropical flavour as fresh kiwi. It also adds a natural green colour and, in the whole-fruit grade, fine black seed specks.
A2:Green kiwi powder (Actinidia deliciosa) is green, tangy, and gets its colour from chlorophyll. Gold kiwi powder (Actinidia chinensis, like SunGold) is yellow, sweeter and milder, and coloured by carotenoids. We supply green as standard and gold on request.
A3:Kiwi is often searched for digestion because of its fibre and its actinidin enzyme, but those uses are tied to standardized kiwi ingredients and supplements, not to a food-grade fruit powder. We sell kiwi powder as a food ingredient and do not make health claims.
A4:Yes, raw kiwi powder contains actinidin, an enzyme that breaks down gelatin and other proteins, so it can stop gelatin setting and soften proteins in uncooked dairy. Heat reduces this, so test it in those systems first or ask for a heat-treated lot.
