Banana puree is made from ripe bananas that have been mashed or blended into a smooth consistency. Blueberry puree is made by processing whole blueberries, often with their skins and seeds, into a smooth pulp. Both are used to add natural fruit flavor and color to foods.

Manufacturers use banana and blueberry purees to add natural fruit flavor, sweetness, and color to a variety of products. They are commonly found in yogurts, juices, smoothies, baked goods, and confectionery items like candies.

Banana and blueberry purees are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. They are a source of natural sugars, fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated fruit purees, recognizing their nutritional contributions. No specific health concerns are associated with their typical consumption as part of a balanced diet.
