Davidson Plum Powder — Australian Native Davidsonia jerseyana

100% Davidson Plum Powder (Davidsonia jerseyana) — a premium Australian native fruit powder from one of the most visually dramatic and culinarily versatile of all bush tucker ingredients. Davidson Plum trees grow in the subtropical and tropical rainforests of Queensland and northern New South Wales, producing large, deeply pigmented dark-purple fruit with an intensely tart, slightly sour flavour profile that sits closer to a souring agent than a sweet fruit. The powder concentrates this vivid colour and sharp, complex flavour into a fine, deep purple powder that delivers an immediate and striking visual and flavour impact in any application.

Davidson Plum is notable for one of the highest recorded concentrations of anthocyanins of any fruit — the same class of pigment compounds responsible for the colour of blueberries, acai, and elderberry — along with naturally occurring Vitamin C, folate, and a broad range of polyphenolic compounds. Naturally caffeine-free. No known allergens. Available in 250g, 500g, 1kg, and 5kg bulk. This product is sold as a food only.

Davidson Plum Powder — FAQs

Everything you need to know before you order.

Davidson Plum (Davidsonia jerseyana, also known as Ooray) is a small rainforest tree native to the subtropical and tropical rainforests of south-east Queensland and northern New South Wales. It produces large, deeply pigmented, dark-purple fruit — visually striking, with a deep crimson flesh — that is intensely tart and sour. Unlike conventional plums (Prunus spp.), Davidson Plum is botanically unrelated, belonging to the family Davidsoniaceae. It has long been used as a traditional food by Aboriginal peoples of the rainforest country of south-east Queensland, and in more recent decades has become one of the most prized ingredients in Australian native food product development — particularly in premium jams, sauces, confectionery, and native food beverage ranges — primarily for its extraordinary colour and its complex, deeply tart flavour.
Davidson Plum's dramatic deep purple colour comes from an exceptionally high concentration of anthocyanins — water-soluble pigment compounds from the flavonoid family that produce red, purple, and blue colours in plants. Davidson Plum is among the highest-recorded natural sources of anthocyanins of any Australian fruit, with some research reporting concentrations significantly above those of blueberries, acai, and elderberry. Anthocyanins are pH-sensitive — the powder will shift from purple-red to blue in alkaline environments and intensify in acidic ones, which is useful to understand for baking and beverage applications where pH varies.
Davidson Plum is primarily used as both a flavour and colour ingredient — the two attributes are inseparable. Beverages: blend into smoothies, juices, and functional drinks for deep purple colour and tart fruit flavour; use in cocktails, cordials, and sparkling waters. Dairy and frozen: stir into yoghurt, ice cream bases, and panna cotta for colour and flavour. Baking: incorporate into cakes, muffins, macarons, and tarts; fold into cream fillings. Sauces and condiments: add to native Australian jams, chutneys, and glazes for red meat. Confectionery: use in chocolate ganache, marshmallow, and hard candy applications. The tart character means it functions similarly to a natural souring agent as well as a flavour ingredient — use 1–2 teaspoons and adjust to taste.
Both are premium Australian native fruit powders at similar price points, but they are quite different in character and application. Kakadu Plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) is pale yellow, primarily notable for its extraordinarily high Vitamin C concentration, and has a tart-fruity flavour. Davidson Plum is deep purple, primarily notable for its anthocyanin concentration and dramatic colour impact, and has a more complex, deeply sour, slightly tannic character. Davidson Plum is more versatile as a colour ingredient — its vivid pigment is stable and visually arresting — while Kakadu Plum is more typically positioned for Vitamin C content in nutritional applications. Many native food product developers use both, for different applications and labelling positions.
Davidson Plum Powder is available in 250g, 500g, 1kg, and 5kg bulk packs. The 5kg is bulk packed, not individual units. Given the premium nature and limited seasonal supply of this ingredient, we recommend contacting our office directly for larger volume requirements or to discuss availability. We ship Australia-wide from our Gold Coast warehouse.
