Yacon syrup is a separate supplier-listed format, not the same ingredient as root powder. Specify the desired form and application so the quotation addresses the correct product.

Technical and formulation considerations

Composition before positioning

Do not infer an FOS percentage, prebiotic effect or low-glycemic claim from the ingredient name. Request the relevant analysis if your project depends on a particular composition.

Composition and processing

Request the full ingredient declaration, processing method and any carrier or additive. Compare quotations only after the grades meet the same specification.

Validate the proposed sample

Test a representative sample in your own formulation. Confirm particle size, moisture, microbiology, packaging and the documentation required by your destination market.

Yacon: frequently asked questions

Is yacon powder the same as yacon syrup?

No. Root powder and syrup have separate composition, handling and specifications. The current catalog entry is powder; syrup is evaluated separately on request.

Is yacon available from stock?

This is a sourcing listing based on documented supplier portfolios, not a stock guarantee. Availability, MOQ, price and lead time are confirmed for the proposed SKU and origin before an order.

Is the ingredient organic or carrier-free?

Neither attribute applies automatically. We request the ingredient declaration and any current certificate covering the exact product and facility before making those claims.

What should I include in my RFQ?

Send the application, desired format, quantity, destination, composition limits and required documents. Include particle size, sensory requirements and your certification needs when applicable.
