Glace Fruits Traditional


Our range of Glace Fruits is of the finest quality. The fruits are gathered from the best growing areas in the world. For example the Pears come from the base of the Alps and the Pineapples are from South Africa.

Sourcing the best quality of fruit is only the first stage in producing quality Glance’s. The next and equally important stage is processing. Our supplier uses a traditional process which has been finely tuned over the last century. To prevent fermenting and to insure succulence the fruits are first boiled to soften the inner fibres. They are then cooled in glucose syrup. The softening of the fibres enables the fruits to absorb the syrup. After three days any excess syrup is drained off. The final product is succulent, subtly sweet to taste and has a quality finish.

The fruits are versatile in their use. They are ideal for decorative purposes and due to their high quality can be used as a compliment to any sweet or dessert.

Dried Roots


Dried Roots provide a woody and earthy flavour.

Sarsaparilla Root is native to the West Indies and is classed as a perennial trailing vine. The root was historically used as a tonic and latterly to flavour root beer and other soft drinks.

Folk lore has it that Angelica Root provides strength to women. Perhaps this explains its bitter sweet flavour!
Like Sarsaparilla Root, Angelica Root can be infused and is ideal for flavouring drinks, shakes and dessert.

MSK-0585 500gr Dried Angelica £14.99
MSK-0607 250gr Sarsparilla Root £16.99

Freeze Dried Berries and Dried Fruits


The first thing to say about these products is that they are not supplied in a frozen condition but at an ambient temperature. The fruits are frozen in the process of extracting moisture from them, they are then brought back to room temperature.

Freeze dried fruits maintain the original shape, texture, colour and most importantly the flavour of the fresh fruit. Freeze drying removes water not flavour which also preserves vitamins and nutritional content. Another advantage of freeze dried fruits is that they are available all year round and have an extensive shelf life at room temperature. Air dried fruits will not maintain flavour to the same degree as freeze dried.

The Fruits can be used as decorations or inclusions. Here are just a few ideas – Enrobe with chocolate to create wonderful sweet petit fours, run through ice cream, parfaits and sorbets or include within all aspects of baking such as cookies, bread and cakes. Alternatively grind into powder form and dust or just add water and in minutes the fruits will re-hydrate to their original form.

The applications are as endless as your imagination!

The following range provides intense encapsulated flavours and colours in a dry powdered format.

This powdered format means that the products can be very simply added to baking mixes, sauces, marinades and all aspects of dessert work from ice cream to crème anglaise.
