The new generation range of URC® ingredients are designed as clean label, nutritious building blocks for innovative, value-added whole fruit snacks.
URC® ingredient formats are proven to be an excellent source of antioxidants, and can be formulated to contain up to seven times their own weight in real fruit content with no added sugars.
URC® Pastes
URC® blending pastes can be incorporated into a range of formed fruit snacks and softer textures can be used for centre filling. The healthy profile can be further enhanced with vitamins, calcium or other functional ingredients.
Deposited and formed fruit snacks can be made using conventional confectionery processes with URC® blending pastes that are all natural and contain no added sugar.
Innovative product concepts such as bite-sized pieces, formed shapes, bars or logs can be acheived with URC® pastes. The high fruit content enables nutritional on pack labelling and brings interest and variety to the healthy snack market.
URC® Pieces & Flakes
URC® fruit pieces and flakes are all natural and contain no artificial colourings or preservatives. Delicious and nutritious, they’re ready to eat straight from the packet as a healthy fruit snack. Added value options include chocolate, yoghurt or sugar coatings to enhance their appeal to different target markets.
