A composition of dried pineapple with honey coating

Abstract

The present utility model discloses a composition of dried pineapple with honey coating. The composition comprises a 93% dehydrated pineapple slices by weight with a moisture content of 10–15%, a 5% honey coating by weight and a 2% lemon juice by weight. The honey serves as a natural preservative and flavor enhancer, improving sweetness, aroma, and nutritional value while extending the shelf life of the product. The composition provides a healthier alternative to conventionally sugar-coated dried fruits by utilizing naturally occurring honey without the addition of artificial additives or refined sugars. The resulting product is suitable as a readyto-eat snack or as a functional ingredient in various food preparations.
