Abstract

A kettle process and product formulation protect large fragile fruit or vegetable pieces that have not been previously sweetened or sugar capped. The combination of a two-starch formulation and a controlled time and temperature kettle process are able to solve the problem of preparing a fruit or vegetable product with no sweetener added using a kettle process, providing large/whole pieces of fruit or vegetable with acceptable quality both out of the jar, can, pouch, packaging or the like and/or as a baking ingredient.
