Fresh or Dried? Sink your teeth into Dragon Fruit (Pitaya) grown on volcanic mountainsides in Nicaragua!
Fresh or Dried, lightly sweet but slightly crunchy, looking summery yet also a fall fruit-simply exotic. 

Pitaya is the fruit’s indigenous name in its home territory in Central America and is the new trend delivering B vitamins, calcium, carotene, fiber, phosphorous and vitamin C. Dragon fruit also only has 60 calories, reflecting its low sugar level. You want it dried on your salads or desserts? It's a fruit filled with health benefits, flavor and fun! The best pitaya fruits with red magenta interior can be found in Central America. Up until now, pitaya has been mostly known in latino communities in the US as it has been rarely imported and marketed outside of ethnic markets.

Sol Simple works with pitaya farmers to make sure only the best of the best pitaya goes into all of our products. The living proof is we have recently obtained NOP organic certification for our small producers and our pitaya products.  Besides nutritious benefits, Sol Simple packs others such as coordinating small producers and supporting single moms and their families with flexible employment.  Best of all, our pitaya is completely solar dried, greatly reducing our carbon footprint. Now available as a beverage, smoothie pack or solar dried in certain Whole Foods Markets, convenience stores and smoothie shops via our affiliate, Pitaya Plus.
Nourish your body, Nurture your planet!
