What it is

Apple solids are derived from apples. They are made by concentrating apple juice or pureeing whole apples and then removing water through drying or evaporation. This process creates a concentrated form of apple flavor and nutrients.

International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar apple-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming typical amounts of apple solids in food.
