Description
Product Overview
Vietfrost is a trusted IQF Calamansi Supplier in Vietnam, processing Frozen Calamansi (also known as Calamondin or Philippine Lime) year-round. This small citrus fruit delivers a distinctive sharp, tangy flavor with underlying sweetness – widely used as a key ingredient in Southeast Asian, Filipino, and Vietnamese cuisine.
IQF Calamansi serves growing demand from Asian Restaurant Chains, Beverage Manufacturers, Cocktail and Mocktail producers, Sauce and Condiment manufacturers, and Ethnic Food Distributors. In the US market, Calamansi has gained popularity through Filipino cuisine and craft Cocktail culture, creating new demand channels beyond traditional Asian grocery distribution.
Vietnam’s year-round Calamansi production ensures stable supply at competitive pricing. Our IQF process preserves the fruit’s intense citrus aroma, bright green-to-yellow color, and tangy juice content through flash-freezing at -40°C. The product is individually frozen for easy portioning.
