Ponthier selects its lemons from the sunlit orchards of Spain, a country renowned for the aromatic richness of its citrus fruits. Thanks to its ideal Mediterranean climate, the lemons develop an intensely fragrant peel that is bright, fruity, and without excessive bitterness.
The zest is carefully peeled, finely granulated, and rapidly frozen (IQF) to preserve its natural colour, freshness, and volatile aromas. The regular cut ensures uniform and precise incorporation into any preparation.
Made from 100% pure fruit, with no preservatives or additives, this zest is ready to use in pastry, confectionery, ice cream making, or savoury cooking. A practical, consistent, and high-quality solution to enhance professional creations.
