Creating the cloudy citrus concentrate
Once these three layers are extracted, they are blended together to create a concentrate with a unique texture and flavor. The combination of flavedo and albedo forms what is known as “orange cloudy” or “peel extract”, a mix that is rich in essential oils and fibers. When this is combined with the juice and pulp cells from the endocarp, the result is a 100% natural citrus fruit concentrate.
This cloudy concentrate is characterized by its slightly opaque appearance, which comes from the suspended fibers and essential oils present in the product. This cloudiness not only adds richness to the texture but also intensifies the citrus flavor, providing a more robust and complex experience.

Maximizing Every Part of the Citrus Fruit
The concentrate is obtained through a meticulous process that extracts and combines three key parts of the citrus: the flavedo, the albedo, and the endocarp. Each of these layers plays a crucial role in the final product.
- Flavedo (Flavors & Essential Oils)
The flavedo is the outermost layer of the citrus peel, where essential oils are concentrated. These oils are responsible for the fresh, vibrant aroma that characterizes citrus fruits, adding a unique dimension to both the flavor and fragrance of the concentrate. The essential oils also impart a slight bitterness that perfectly balances the natural sweetness of the fruit. - Albedo (Citrus Fiber)
The next layer, the albedo, is rich in natural fiber. This layer is crucial not only for its nutritional benefits but also because it contributes to the concentrate’s texture. The albedo is what gives the product its characteristic cloudy appearance, meaning that it retains some of the fruit’s natural fibers, resulting in an unfiltered, authentic citrus experience. - Endocarp (Juice & Pulp Cells)
The endocarp is the innermost layer, containing the juice-filled cells that hold the majority of the fruit’s fresh flavor. This part provides the liquid base for the concentrate, containing the natural sugars and acids that define the final product’s taste profile. The combination of juice and pulp cells ensures that the concentrate preserves the full, authentic flavor of freshly squeezed fruit.
How 100% Orange Citrus Concentrate Is Produced
This infographic illustrates the industrial process behind the production of 100% orange citrus concentrate, highlighting how each part of the fruit contributes to a high-quality final product. The citrus fruit is separated into three key components: flavedo (outer peel for flavors and essential oils), albedo (citrus fiber), and endocarp (juice and pulp cells).
The endocarp provides the juice base, while valuable compounds from the flavedo and albedo are recovered and optimized for industrial use. Through a controlled evaporation process, water is gently removed under vacuum conditions, concentrating natural sugars, acids, and aroma compounds without compromising quality.
The result is a premium orange juice concentrate (64.0–66.0° Brix) with balanced acidity (3.3–4.3), ideal for beverage manufacturers, food processors, and industrial applications. This efficient utilization of the whole fruit ensures sustainability, maximum yield, and consistent sensory performance in large-scale production.
Our citrus concentration process guarantees traceability, flavor retention, and optimal physicochemical parameters for global export markets.
