Abstract

This application relates to methods of infusing fruits with fructose sugar solids and food products which remain now-crystalline at freezer temperatures containing such infused fruit products. The fruit is infused by immersing it in two or more sugar containing solutes baths of gradually increasing sugar concentration so that the solids content of the fruit is increased in a step-wise and gradual manner to the level of about 32-55 percent by weight.
