Elderberry Fruit Powder is finely milled Sambucus nigra berry with a deep purple colour and a rich, fruity profile. It is commonly used in heated preparations such as decoctions, syrups, and cordial-style recipes, where it brings both flavour and natural colour. The powder format is quick to measure and blends smoothly, with fine straining recommended for the cleanest finish. It can also be used in formulation projects where a berry antioxidant profile is desired.
