What it is

Orange puree is made from whole oranges that have been pureed. The process typically involves washing, sorting, and then grinding the oranges into a smooth pulp, often with the peel included for added flavor and color. It retains much of the natural composition of the fruit.

Why it's used

Orange puree is used to add natural orange flavor, color, and moisture to a variety of foods. Manufacturers add it to baked goods like muffins and pastries, frozen desserts, candies, and fruit snacks to enhance their fruity taste and aroma.

Health notes

Orange puree is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamin C and other nutrients found naturally in oranges. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated orange juice and related products, but specific evaluations for 'orange puree' with numeric limits are not commonly cited in public databases. At typical consumption levels, it is considered safe and contributes to a balanced diet.

Allergen info

Orange puree is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
