1)Jams, Jellies and Marmalades
The appealing properties of jams, marmalades and jellies produced by the fruit processing industry are to a large degree owing to the benefits of pectin: smooth gel, low syneresis, glossy surface, good spreadability, regular fruit distribution, clear cut and natural, fruit specific flavor.
2) Fruit fillings
The fruit preparations named fruit fillings, which are added to the cake after the baking process, are expected to show, besides the required flavor and texture, also very good properties regarding processing (e.g. pumping, dosing, injecting). Pectin is used to provide firmness, texture, baking stability and surface gloss to fruit fillings.
