Apricot puree

Apricot puree is a smooth, thick substance made from blending ripe apricots into a soft, liquid form. It is a fruit-based ingredient that comes from apricot fruits, which are known for their sweet and slightly tangy flavour. Apricot puree is commonly used in various food products to add natural sweetness and fruitiness.

To make apricot puree, ripe apricots are washed, pitted, and blended into a smooth consistency. The puree may be strained to remove any chunks or fibres, resulting in a silky texture that is easy to incorporate into recipes. Some manufacturers may heat-treat the puree to preserve its freshness before packaging it for sale.

Apricot puree is often included in food products like yoghurts, smoothies, jams, and baked goods to enhance their flavour and add natural sweetness. It can also be used in sauces, dressings, and cocktails to provide a fruity twist. Its presence on food labels signifies the use of real fruit ingredients, offering a natural and wholesome touch to the overall product.
