Citrus Whole Fruit Products

MAK Food Company lists orange, lemon, mandarin, grapefruit and citrus mix ingredients in this category. The range includes comminuted references, cloudy ingredients and whole fruit purees, with availability and specifications confirmed for the selected product.

These are different product formats within the citrus portfolio. Their composition, particle profile, appearance and consistency can differ. Manufacturers should compare the technical sheets rather than assume that a comminuted reference, a cloudy ingredient and a whole fruit puree are interchangeable.

The catalogue includes orange and lemon comminuted references with different ratio designations. The technical specification should define the ratio and its basis for each product. Use that information alongside acidity, soluble solids and the intended formulation to establish dosage.

They can be evaluated for beverages, fruit preparations, frozen desserts, confectionery and sauces where the selected reference is suitable. Trials should assess fruit character, bitterness where relevant, appearance, texture and behaviour under the intended processing conditions.

Provide the target citrus profile, desired format, required analytical parameters, processing conditions and expected volumes. Confirm the exact fruit composition, packaging, storage requirements and shelf life for the selected reference, and evaluate a representative sample in the finished recipe.
