Fruits - Unprepared/Unprocessed (Frozen): Nutrition Facts and Calories

This category features frozen fruits that are unprepared or unprocessed, meaning they are typically whole, sliced, or diced fruit without added ingredients. Examples include frozen peaches, mixed berries, and strawberries. Freezing is an excellent way to preserve fruits, making them available year-round for smoothies, baking, or as a simple snack. When choosing frozen fruits, check the Nutrition Facts label and ingredient list carefully. For unprepared frozen fruits, the ingredient list should ideally contain only the fruit itself. Some products might include ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) to maintain color, which is generally acceptable. Pay close attention to the "Added Sugars" line on the Nutrition Facts label. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting added sugars. Many frozen fruit products, especially those marketed as "sweetened" or "in syrup," may contain significant amounts. Look for options with 0 grams of added sugars. Frozen fruits are naturally good sources of dietary fiber and are very low in sodium and saturated fat.
