Frozen Cauliflower Florets

Frozen Cauliflower Florets

We supply IQF frozen cauliflower florets for prepared-food portions in 10 kg cartons. The shelf life is 12 months under frozen storage. Compare cooked tenderness and the amount of loose material with the accepted sample before releasing a lot to production.

Select florets for the portion

The product views show numerous separate florets of varied head and stem size. In a prepared meal, even distribution matters because very small pieces disappear while large pieces dominate a tray. We use the actual frozen floret form as the buyer's first decision.

A kitchen trial should show whether head-to-stem balance survives the normal cook step. A visible side dish can call for larger intact heads, while a vegetable mix can use smaller pieces without changing the product identity. The buyer can set an acceptance sample for head size and stem length so the cooked serving stays consistent across replenishment lots.

Pack and handle the frozen case

A 10 kg case from the XMSD cauliflower program suits an ingredient line that weighs florets into production. Carton quantity matters, but so does the amount of small loose material at the bottom after handling.

Florets can settle and break during repacking. Inspect the lower part of a 10 kg case as well as the top when reviewing loose crumb and stem pieces. Follow that sample through the repacking or portioning step, then compare the usable yield and seal condition of the finished unit.

Check condition at receiving

Check color, loose stems and frost at intake before releasing the case to production. The 12-month frozen life anchors stock rotation for these florets.

Use the 12-month frozen shelf life when allocating stock. We maintain -18°C or below through receiving and warehousing, and use the January–March and September–October crop windows for replenishment planning. Inspect one carton from a new lot before it is allocated to several customers, then retain the result for the next replenishment comparison. A cooked trial can reveal soft stems or uneven head texture that a frozen visual check alone may miss.
