Among other things, this tropical fruit is rich in vitamins B and C, as well as manganese, potassium and folate, providing a health boost. Durian also has a pleasant tropical taste.  It can be found growing mainly in the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia. As the durian tree likes a more humid growing environment, it can also thrive successfully on riverbanks.

Durian powder is a uniquely flavoured and aromatic powder ground from tropical durian, perfect for adding a tropical touch to your smoothie. To make the powder, fresh durian is first freeze-dried and then ground into a powder for easy and convenient use. However, because the freeze-drying process takes place at a very low temperature, all the beneficial nutrients are nicely preserved in the durian powder, providing the same values as fresh fruit. This allows you to enjoy the powerful properties and tropical taste of durian wherever you are, all year round.

Freeze-dried durian powder is a great way to make tropical smoothies as well as flavouring desserts and healthy raw cakes. You can also sprinkle durian powder on your breakfast porridge or mix it with yoghurt or muesli – just let your imagination run wild! If you’re a fan of ice cream, you can also add durian powder into banana ice cream for a tropical treat that’s also nutritious.
