About Fruit topping

Fruit topping is a fruit-based or fruit-flavoured topping intended to be placed on another food. The term does not establish whether it contains pieces of fruit, puree, or a fruit-like flavour, and does not identify a specific fruit or formulation. Sweetness, thickness, colour, and degree of processing can vary among products.

It is commonly encountered as a topping for foods such as desserts, but the catalogue name does not restrict it to one use. It may be spoonable, pourable, smooth, or chunky, depending on its form and contents. Product-specific details such as fruit content, packing medium, and any added ingredients must be taken from the label.
