Product Introduction
Matcha Powder for Ice Cream – Bulk Supply for Frozen Dessert Manufacturers
Our matcha powder for ice cream is formulated for frozen dessert manufacturers that need stable color and reliable flavor at low temperatures. It is ground from shade-grown tea leaves and sieved to a fine, uniform particle size that disperses smoothly into dairy and non-dairy bases.
Frozen applications place specific demands on matcha. The powder must keep its green color through freezing and thawing, resist clumping in cold mixes, and deliver a flavor that stays visible against sugar and dairy fats. This grade is selected for those conditions. It also performs well in gelato, frozen yogurt, and plant-based frozen desserts.
As a source factory, we supply this grade in bulk at consistent pricing. Our monthly capacity for frozen dessert grade matcha is 25 tons, and we support private-label and OEM production for brands that want to launch their own ice cream or frozen dessert product.
