Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference compared to a liquid flavor?
The pasty texture offers better cooking stability and more even distribution. The aromatic intensity is higher thanks to the 25% real fruit, requiring a lower dosage.
Can it be used in a chocolate ganache?
Perfectly. Incorporate 3-4% of the total ganache weight after complete emulsification. The acidity of passion fruit pairs particularly well with white and milk chocolate.
Is the natural color retained?
Yes, the natural colorants (beta-carotene and curcumin) reproduce the characteristic yellow-orange hue of passion fruit, giving an authentic look to your creations.
How many preparations with a 360g jar?
About 12-18 preparations of 500g depending on dosage (2-6%). An excellent value for regular use.
Is the natural acidity of the fruit preserved?
Absolutely. Citric acid (E330) enhances the natural tart notes of passion fruit, creating that characteristic sweet-tart balance.
