Orange pulp
Orange pulp is the moist, juice-bearing tissue of orange fruit, used in juice products and foods when a tender, textured sweet-tart citrus component is wanted.

About Orange pulp
Orange pulp is the soft, moist tissue of the orange fruit, including juice-bearing vesicles and, depending on preparation, small fragments of membrane. It is orange in colour and has a juicy, tender texture with a sweet-tart citrus flavour. It is distinct from peel and from juice with no pulp.
Pulp may be separated during juicing and sold fresh, frozen, or otherwise processed, with particle size and retained juice varying. It is used in juice products and foods where a more textured orange component is wanted; the name alone does not specify its processing or pulp size.
