Frozen Cranberry
Vaccinium macrocarpon
IQF whole, notably acidic. Popular in sugar-free and wellness ranges.
- Brix 7-9° · pH 2.4-2.8
- 500g / 1kg / 10kg
Four core berries, multiple grades and formats, plus six secondary items. Every product is individually quick frozen — no blocks, no slabs.
Vaccinium corymbosum · Cultivated highbush varieties
Our highest-volume item and the one we are known for. Yunnan's highland growing conditions produce fruit with a longer ripening window, which shows up as more consistent Brix across the season and a deeper bloom on the skin. We supply whole berries only — if you need diced or crushed, say so and we will quote it, but whole is what we do well.
| Grade | Caliper | Whole berry | Brix | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grade A | 15 mm + | ≥ 95% | 10-12° | Bakery decoration, premium retail, yoghurt topping |
| Grade B | 12-15 mm | ≥ 90% | 10-12° | Bakery filling, foodservice, dessert assembly |
| Processing | Any size | ≥ 80% | 9-12° | Jam, purée, juice, compote |
Fragaria × ananassa · Senga Sengana, Honey, All Star, American No.13
The most format-flexible item in our range. Whole for garnish, sliced and diced where even dosing matters on a production line, and a sugar-ratio option for jam makers who want to skip the cooking step. Strawberry is also the most fragile item we ship, so it carries a shorter lead time and we recommend sample testing before a full container.
| Format | Sizes / Cuts | Application |
|---|---|---|
| Whole | 15-22 / 22-28 / 28-35 mm | Bakery top, dessert garnish, retail pack |
| Sliced | 10 mm / 12 mm | Yoghurt inclusion, pastry filling |
| Diced | 10×10 / 12×12 / 15×15 mm | Fruit prep, ice cream, sauce |
| + Sugar | 4+1 / 9+1 / 12+1 / 27+1 | Jam base, pie filling |
| Drum / pail | 400 lb drum · 6×6.5 lb pail | Industrial foodservice |
Rubus idaeus · Whole hollow berries · Grade A only
Soft fruit with a narrow window. We supply Grade A only — a Grade B raspberry does not exist in any useful sense, because the fruit breaks down before cosmetics become an issue. The number worth asking us for is harvest-to-freeze hours, which for this fruit is measured in hours, not days.
| Attribute | Specification |
|---|---|
| Grade | Grade A — uniform red, no white core, no under-ripe fruit |
| Brix / pH | 9-11° / 3.0-3.4 |
| Defect tolerance | Broken or mushy ≤ 3% · Stalks ≤ 1% · Mould ≤ 0.1% |
| Harvest-to-freeze | Under 12 hours — ask us for the figure on your lot |
| Packing | 500 g / 1 kg pouch · 5 kg / 10 kg carton |
Rubus fruticosus · Varieties: Hull and/or Chester
Variety is the whole story here. Hull is the larger, later berry suited to processing; Chester is the firmer, glossier one preferred for fresh-facing applications. Tell us which your process suits, or ask us which lot is currently in season.
| Attribute | Grade A | Grade B |
|---|---|---|
| Colour | Purple-black to pure black, no red berries | Mostly purple-red, few purple-black permitted |
| Brix | 7-10° | 7-10° |
| Defects | Soft / mushy ≤ 3% Broken ≤ 3% Stalks ≤ 1% | Soft / mushy ≤ 6% |
| Clump tolerance | ≤ 3% | ≤ 5% |
| Packing | 500 g / 1 kg / 5 kg / 10 kg | 5 kg / 10 kg carton |
Secondary items we can supply in the same container. Useful if you need a blend partner or want to broaden a retail line without a second supplier.
Vaccinium macrocarpon
IQF whole, notably acidic. Popular in sugar-free and wellness ranges.
Prunus cerasus
IQF pitted. Higher acid and stronger flavour than sweet cherry — a bakery staple.
Ribes nigrum
The common blending partner for tart berries. Strong acidity, distinctive colour.
Rheum rhabarbarum
IQF cut 20 mm. Very tart — bakery, compote and tart fillings.
Vaccinium vitis-idaea
Niche premium item. Small volumes, loyal demand, high per-kg value.
Custom ratio
Four-berry classic (25/25/25/25) or custom. Sliced strawberry option available.
Knowing your application lets us quote the right grade. It is the single most useful thing you can tell us.
Grade A whole for decoration, Grade B for fillings, diced for batter work. The largest single application for Grade A blueberry worldwide.
Middle East demand is 25-30% dairy-driven. Diced and sliced formats exist specifically for yoghurt inclusion lines.
Middle East beverage is 30-35% of demand and Thailand's beverage channel is particularly strong. Processing Grade fits here.
Requires IQF specifically — block-frozen fruit breaks the dosing line. Raspberry and blackberry dominate here.
Processing Grade, or strawberry with added sugar at your specified ratio if you want to skip cooking.
500 g and 1 kg private-label pouches. Minimums and unit cost differ — ask for the retail-format quote specifically.
Tell us your application and we will recommend the grade — including telling you if a cheaper one would do the job.
