Cardamom extract is extracted from cardamom seeds, with a strong aroma, rich in active substances such as terpenes, flavonoids and phenolic acids, and has antioxidant properties that help the body's digestive health. With the growing global demand for natural flavor enhancers and functional ingredients, the cardamom market has grown significantly, and it is increasingly used in health-focused beverages, premium cosmetics and digestive health supplements. At botanical cube inc., we use carefully selected cardamom pods and use low-temperature extraction to preserve active compounds, ensuring our extract is rich in high eucalyptol, which ensures potency and consistency.
Why choose our cardamom extract?
1. Premium Raw Material Selection
We source only the highest grade green cardamom pods and each batch is pre-tested for essential oil concentration prior to extraction.
2. Premium Aroma, High Functionality
Our optimized process retains ≥35% alpha-terpineol acetate, a compound that enhances the aromatic profile and digestive properties of cardamom, ensuring better taste, richer aroma and higher functional value.
3. Long Shelf Life, Low Moisture
Our specialized drying process reduces moisture content to less than 3%, maintaining potency for up to 36 months without added preservatives.
4. Resistant to Agglomeration and Degradation
To prevent agglomeration and degradation, our extracts are spray dried using a natural carrier, resulting in a free-flowing, stable powder suitable for capsules, tablets and beverages.
