COMPOSITION OF HONEY ICE CREAM ENRICHED WITH CANISTEL (Pouteria campechiana)

Abstract

Disclosed is a utility model that pertains to a novel composition of honey ice cream enriched with Canistel (Pouteria campechiana). The composition comprises 40.8% by weight cream, 30.0% by weight milk, 20.1% by weight honey, and 9.1% by weight fresh Canistel fruit pulp. The formulation provides a naturally sweetened frozen dessert product with enhanced nutritional value, improved flavor profile, creamy texture, and desirable sensory characteristics. The incorporation of honey serves as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer, while fresh Canistel fruit contributes nutritional compounds, natural color, and unique sensory attributes. The developed composition offers an alternative functional ice cream product utilizing locally available and underutilized fruits.
