Sweetness and a Refreshing Herb-like Aroma

Oranje carrots are vibrantly orange to the core, with thin skin and a refreshing, herb-like aroma. A key feature is their high carotene content, which offers superior antioxidant properties compared to common Western carrots.

Fresh Oranje carrots are characterized by a sweetness that makes them suitable for juicing as is. Dried Oranje, on the other hand, boasts a rich, herbaceous aroma that balances its sweetness. They are also recommended for those who aren't particularly fond of the sweetness of carrots.
