Our Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Crisps capture the natural sweetness and vibrant color of premium orange-fleshed sweet potatoes through a gentle baking process that requires minimal oil and no artificial additives. Unlike deep-fried alternatives, our crisps are slow-baked at controlled temperatures to achieve a satisfying crunch while preserving the vegetable's inherent nutritional benefits, including high levels of beta-carotene (provitamin A), dietary fiber, and complex carbohydrates.
Production begins with carefully selected orange-fleshed sweet potatoes (Yanshu 25 variety) harvested at optimal maturity. Tubers undergo curing for 7 days to promote starch-to-sugar conversion, then are washed, peeled, and sliced to precise 1.5mm thickness. Slices receive ascorbic acid treatment to prevent browning, followed by centrifugal dewatering and light oil application.
Baking occurs in a three-zone convection oven with carefully controlled temperature stages for optimal moisture removal and crisp development. After cooling, chips receive light sea salt seasoning and pass through optical sorting before nitrogen-flushed packaging.

An Australian health food retail chain with 85 stores sought a clean-label sweet potato chip for their "Better Snacking" category. We developed a 100g sharing format with packaging featuring beta-carotene and vitamin A messaging. The product achieved 78% sell-through in the first month, with 63% of purchasers switching from fried sweet potato chips.
A UK brand specializing in snacks for young children required sweet potato crisps meeting strict criteria: no added salt, no added sugar, baked not fried, and finger-food size. We developed a 12g mini-format with larger chip size suitable for small hands. The product received a "Good Choice" rating and achieved 620,000 units in first-year sales with 4.8/5 satisfaction rating from parents.
On multiple nutritional dimensions, yes. Our baked sweet potato crisps contain 85-90% less fat than typical fried potato chips, provide approximately 12mg of beta-carotene per 100g versus essentially zero in potato chips, and contain 7g of dietary fiber per 100g versus 3-4g. They also have a lower glycemic impact due to complex carbohydrate structure.
The sweetness comes from natural maltose developed during our curing process. After harvest, we cure sweet potatoes at 30°C and 90% humidity for 7 days, during which enzymes convert starch into maltose, increasing sweetness by approximately 40%. Many manufacturers skip this step, resulting in less sweet chips.
Yes, we offer flavor customization including sea salt & cracked black pepper, rosemary & sea salt, cinnamon & coconut sugar, smoked paprika, and chili & lime. Minimum order for custom flavors is 500 cartons.
Our unsalted variant is suitable for children from approximately 12 months who are comfortably eating finger foods. The baked texture dissolves relatively easily in the mouth, reducing choking risk. We have supplied major baby and toddler snack brands with custom formulations meeting EU Baby Food Directive requirements.
Shelf life is 12 months in sealed, nitrogen-flushed packaging. The chips maintain crispness throughout this period due to low moisture content and high-barrier packaging. We recommend consuming within 1 week of opening for optimal texture.
Yes, we offer organic sweet potato crisps using certified organic Yanshu 25 sweet potatoes with EU Organic, USDA NOP, and China Organic certifications. The organic variant carries a 20-25% price premium with minimum order of 300 cartons.
