What it is

Apple and pear juice concentrates are made by removing water from apple and pear juice. This process intensifies the flavor and sweetness of the juice, making it easier to transport and store. The concentrated juice can then be reconstituted by adding water back to it.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use apple and pear juice concentrates primarily as a sweetener and flavor enhancer in beverages, baked goods, and confectionery. They are common in fruit juices, fruit drinks, and fruit-flavored snacks, where they contribute natural fruit taste and sweetness.

Health notes

Apple and pear juice concentrates are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of natural sugars and contribute to the overall caloric content of foods. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated fruit juices and their concentrates, and EFSA has also reviewed related substances. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Apple and pear juice concentrates are derived from fruits and do not contain any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. They are also gluten-free.
