Description
IQF frozen raspberries (Rubus idaeus) grown on farms in the Ukrainian Carpathian region and processed at peak ripeness. Raspberries are a delicate, hollow-cored fruit, so careful harvesting and gentle individual quick-freezing are essential to preserve whole, intact berries with their bright red colour, aroma and structure. Frozen individually, they stay loose and free-flowing for precise dosing and controlled thawing. Depending on your requirements and price point, raspberries are supplied as whole grade, crumble (broken berries) for cost-efficient processing, or as seedless purée. All fruit is sorted, cleaned and free of leaves and foreign matter, ready for direct industrial use. Typical applications: bakery and pastry, yoghurt and dairy, ice cream and desserts, coulis and sauces, jams, preserves and fillings, smoothies, juices and concentrates. IQF freezing preserves the natural colour, intense flavour and nutrients, including natural vitamin C and ellagic acid. Sourcing is fully traceable from field to finished pallet, and processing follows HACCP standards; organic-certified lots are available on request. Packaging: 25 kg multi-layer paper bags or 400 kg industrial octabins. Storage at –18 °C. Minimum order 500 kg. Delivery across the EU on FCA, DAP or DDP terms, with full export documentation.

FAQs
This premium Carpathian ingredient is available in industrial-grade fresh forms during peak harvest, or as premium Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) selections year-round. Depending on your manufacturing specifications, we can offer the product color-sorted, calibrated by millimeter size, or semi-processed to integrate seamlessly into automated food production lines, dairy manufacturing, or industrial baking applications.
Yes. While fresh, non-frozen batches are strictly tied to our seasonal harvesting calendar, our IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) fruit products are processed at peak nutritional maturity and stored in deep-freeze facilities. This advanced preservation enables us to guarantee a continuous, uninterrupted wholesale supply to our B2B partners 365 days a year, regardless of the crop's calendar season.
To preserve cell structure, flavor profile, and total food safety, strict cold-chain protocols must be followed. Fresh orders require immediate humidity-controlled refrigeration and rapid processing. Our IQF deep-frozen products must be maintained continuously at a stable temperature of -18°C or lower to prevent enzymatic degradation and clustering, ensuring full compliance with international HACCP safety guidelines.
The commercial shelf life depends entirely on the product form. Freshly harvested batches are highly perishable and require immediate food processing or distribution within a few days under refrigeration. Our IQF frozen items possess a robust shelf life of 12 to 24 months when held continuously at -18°C, retaining their natural color, structure, and microbiological stability.
