ALPHONSO MANGO PULP


Product description

Alphonso Mango Pulp  is made from select Alphonso variety mangoes, ripened under controlled conditions.

The preparation process includes cutting, destoning, refining and packing.  In case of aseptic packing the pulp is sterilised and packed in presterilised aseptic bags. The refined pulp is also packed in cans, hermetically sealed and retorted. Frozen pulp is pasteurised and deep frozen in plate freezers.

The process ensures that the natural flavour and aroma of the fruit is maintained in the final product.

Usage
The exotic aroma of the product makes it suitable for blending with mango pulp of other varieties for reconstitution of nectar, drinks, juices and various other kinds of beverages.
