The invention discloses pomelo peel cake as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The pomelo peel cake is prepared from the
sponge layer of the pomelo peel by virtue of debitterizing,
pectin extracting, cooking, pouring molding and the like, wherein the pH value of the pomelo peel cake is between 2 and 3.5, the
sugar content is over 55 percent; the cake has palatable sour and sweet and slightly bitter, is fine and smooth and elastic, and has the unique
flavor of pomelo. The polemo peel
pectin extraction is combined with a
fruit cake, the added acid solution is not only used for extracting a pomelo peel
pectin substance, but also ensures that the pomelo peel cake has source taste, so that two functions are achieved at one step; residues generated in pomelo peel cake
processing is rich in pomelo peel fibers, and can be used as a
raw material for preparing dietary fibers or directly added into related foods to prepare foods rich in the dietary fibers, so that comprehensive
resource utilization can be realized; and the method provided by the invention also can be used for changing waste into valuable, thus a novel approach of pomelo
resource development and utilization is developed, and the defect that the pomelo resource is rich but utilized less in China is overcome.
