Pineapple Puree & Quince Puree

Pineapple puree and quince puree are fruit-based ingredients made from processed pineapples and quinces, respectively. These fruits are blended into a smooth consistency, often with the addition of water or other ingredients to achieve the desired texture. They are used to impart natural fruit flavor and color to food products.

These purees are primarily used to add natural fruit flavor and sweetness to baked goods, desserts, and beverages. They can also contribute to the texture and moisture content of products like cookies, pastries, and jams. Manufacturers choose them for their natural fruit profile and consumer appeal.

Pineapple and quince purees are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. They are natural sources of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar fruit preparations, but no specific numerical limits are set for these purees. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming these fruit purees in typical amounts found in food.
