What it is

Fruit concentrates are made by removing water from fruit juice. This process intensifies the natural flavor and color of the fruit. They are used to add fruit taste and sweetness to products without adding a lot of liquid.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use fruit concentrates to add natural fruit flavor and sweetness to foods and beverages. They can also act as a natural colorant. You can find them in fruit bars, candies, dairy products, and sauces.

Health notes

Fruit concentrates are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are a source of natural sugars and can contribute to the overall sugar content of a food. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many fruit-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Fruit concentrates are not derived from major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
