PRODUCT IDEAS
Baked goods
Add a fruity touch to baked goods such as biscuits, cakes, pies, muffins, and bread with our fruit granulates. Whether used as a filling, topping or part of the batter, fruit granulates provide a juicy and flavourful experience. Choose from a variety of fruity flavours to give your creations that special “fruitiness” and “wholesomeness”.
Muesli bars
Our fruit granulates provide an X-FACTOR to any standard muesli bar. Due to their fine consistency, they can be easily incorporated into the bar mass and impart an intense fruity flavour. The granulates not only provide a natural sweetness, but also an appealing appearance and a wholesome texture and “chewiness”.
