About Fruit butter
Fruit butter is a thick fruit-based spread made by cooking fruit into a concentrated, soft consistency. The name describes a category rather than a specific fruit or recipe; ingredients and preparation can vary among products.
It is commonly used as a spread or as an ingredient in baked goods and other foods. Its texture is generally smooth and dense, though some products may retain fruit texture, and its flavour reflects the fruit and any other ingredients used. The label does not identify a particular fruit, sweetness, or formulation.
