Sweetened passion fruit puree

Thanks to our fruit sourcing expertise and close relationships with growing regions, we select passion fruits with a particularly balanced flavour profile. Made from a blend of yellow and purple passion fruits, this sweetened puree combines aromatic intensity, freshness and complexity with a perfectly controlled acidity. Its exotic flavour and vibrant aromatic profile make it an essential ingredient for sorbets, desserts, mousses, beverages and pairings with chocolate, tropical fruits and dairy-based creations.
