Preparation :

  1. Fresh chiku fruits that are free from diseases, pests and physical damage are harvested at the right stage of ripeness.
  2. The chiku fruits are peeled to remove the skin. After peeling, the seeds are carefully extracted and the edible pulp is collected.
  3. The chiku pulp is then pureed or mashed to create a smooth and homogenous mixture.
  4. The puree is then strained to remove any fibrous or solid particles.
  5. The puree is fed into a spray dryer. The spray dryer atomizes the puree into tiny droplets, which are then rapidly dried using hot air.
  6. The dried chiku powder is collected and ground into a fine, uniform powder using a grinding mill.
  7. The final chiku powder is then packaged in food-grade containers or bags.
