Fruit Toffees

Abstract

Fruit toffees are made from pulpy fruits like banana, mango, jackfruit, guava etc. Fruits are grown seasonally and are perishable in nature. Fruit preservation techniques enable the mankind to enjoy fruits even during off-season and fruit toffees one such product. Fruit toffees are highly nutritious products compared to sugar boiled confectionaries. The prerequisite for this project is availability of fruits all round the year. The state of Uttaranchal produces many fruits and thus availability round the year would not be a problem. The technology is easy and standardised and the capital cost of the project is also not very high.
