Freezing Mixed Vegetables
Description
Technical Parameters
Product Overview
GreenLand-food supplies IQF mixed vegetables and frozen mixed vegetable blends for global importers, distributors, foodservice companies, food manufacturers, and private label buyers. We prepare mixed vegetables from selected frozen vegetable ingredients such as carrots, green peas, sweet corn, green beans, broccoli, and cauliflower.
Each ingredient is washed, cut, blanched, cooled, drained, IQF frozen, inspected, and then blended according to your formula, packing, and application requirements. We help your purchasing team confirm stable cut size, balanced color mix, bulk supply, retail packing, and mixed container plans before order confirmation.
Product Blend Options
We supply IQF mixed vegetables in standard and customized formulas. The original broccoli, cauliflower, green bean, and carrot mix can be supplied as one option, and we can also match common vegetable blend formulas for foodservice, ready meals, retail packs, and industrial processing.
Classic 4-Way Mix
Green peas + carrot dices + sweet corn kernels + cut green beans for retail bags, foodservice packs, fried rice, and ready-meal production.
Broccoli Cauliflower Mix
Broccoli florets + cauliflower florets + carrot dices + green beans, including the current main formula requested for vegetable side dishes and meal solutions.
Soup Vegetable Mix
Carrot dices + green peas + sweet corn + green beans + cauliflower or broccoli for soup factories, sauce processors, and central kitchens.
Fried Rice Vegetable Mix
Carrot dices + green peas + sweet corn kernels + diced green beans, with cut size and ratio adjusted for rice, meal kit, and frozen prepared-food production.
Custom Frozen Vegetable Blend
Vegetable type, formula ratio, cut size, color balance, and packing can be adjusted according to your order specification and destination market.
Custom Formula and Ratio Support
For customized frozen mixed vegetables, send us your required vegetable types, formula ratio, cut size, packing size, target market, and application. GreenLand-food can evaluate raw material availability, prepare sample reference when required, and confirm the final formula before bulk production.
For customized frozen mixed vegetables, your purchasing team should confirm formula ratio, cut size, packing, target market, and application before trial production or bulk order. Early confirmation controls ingredient distribution, color balance, loading plan, and final product appearance.
25% carrot dices + 25% green peas + 25% sweet corn kernels + 25% cut green beans.
30% broccoli + 30% cauliflower + 20% carrot + 20% green beans.
40% carrot dices + 20% green peas + 20% sweet corn kernels + 20% green beans.
Key Product Features
Processing Flow
We process each vegetable ingredient separately before blending. This flow controls ingredient quality, cut size, color, formula ratio accuracy, free-flowing IQF condition, and export packing requirements.
The vegetables are blanched before freezing and supplied for further cooking or heating according to your application. We do not position this product as ready-to-eat.
