About Kesar & Badami mango
Kesar and Badami are popular Indian mango varieties with bright flesh and a rich, sweet flavour. Badami is widely grown in Karnataka and is sometimes called the 'Karnataka Alphonso'. Both are excellent for processing.
Why freeze-dried
These varieties have a longer season and lower cost than Alphonso, which makes them ideal for powders, blends and larger product lines that need consistent mango flavour.
How buyers use it
- Mango powder for drinks and lassi mixes

Sourcing and season
We buy from growers and markets in Karnataka during the main season and can supply Gujarat Kesar on request.
Packing and storage
We supply food-grade, moisture-proof bulk packs and retail-ready pouches, including private label. Keep packs sealed in a cool, dry place. Once opened, reseal tightly, because freeze-dried food absorbs moisture from the air. Full specifications and certificates are shared with every quote.
Questions
How is this different from Alphonso?
The flavour is similarly sweet and tropical, but the season is longer and the cost lower, which suits powders and everyday products.
Is the powder pure mango?
Yes. It is 100% mango with nothing added.
What is the minimum order?
Minimum order quantities depend on the format and packing. We start with sample orders, and include MOQs with every quote.
