Patent number: 4587132Abstract: A process is provided for preparing a free-flowing, dried, pulped and finished fruit puree product in the form of flakes which are readily reconstitutable to the natural fruit puree consistency. The process comprises the steps of (1) preparing a fruit puree by pulping and finishing a fresh fruit so as to remove the skins and core materials therefrom: (2) adding an amount not more than about 11.0 wet weight percent crude fiber selected from the group consisting of fruit skins, fruit core materials free of seeds and pits, and mixtures thereof effective to render the fruit puree resistant to thermal set; (3) while maintaining the total sugar content of the puree at not more than about 80.0 percent and the ratio of the total sugar content to insoluble solids within the range of from about 5.0:1.0 to about 13.0:1.10; and (4) drying the fruit puree in the form of free-flowing flakes having resistance to thermal set.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 1983Date of Patent: May 6, 1986Assignee: H. J. Heinz CompanyInventor: John F. Fuller, Jr.
