Carolina Innovative Food Ingredients recently received certification under the USDA National Organic Program, allowing the company to offer certified organic versions of all of its sweet potato ingredients, including juices and dehydrated products. The certification was provided by Oregon Tilth, a leading third-party nonprofit organization that certifies organic products and that also played an integral role in the formation of the USDA National Organic Program.
According to a release, CIFI’s naturally non-GMO sweet potato ingredients, including cloudy and clarified juices, juice concentrate, dehydrated flour, and dehydrated granules, are ideal for clean label applications, with the ability to replace artificial sweeteners like high fructose corn syrup, and other ingredients that are less desirable to consumers.
