Fruit nectars: the high protein trend, from tradition to innovation

Fruit nectars continue to evolve alongside changing consumer expectations. Unlike 100% fruit juices, they allow for the use of thicker or naturally tangy fruits (such as peach, apricot, or pear) delivering a richer taste, a smoother texture, and strong formulation flexibility.
In this context, our glucose-fructose syrups stand out as a highly functional ingredient. Their versatile sweetness, excellent solubility, stability over time, and fructose content help enhance the natural flavour of the fruit.


Today’s consumers are increasingly looking for products that combine nutritional benefits with enjoyment. This is where the high-protein trend comes into play: no longer limited to the fitness world, it has become mainstream, supporting fullness and more active lifestyles.


Protein-enriched nectars represent a natural next step. Some of our customers have already brought this concept to market using SEDA M, our soluble wheat proteins that enhance nutritional value, combine taste and functionality, and position the product between a beverage and a liquid snack.


…while always keeping the natural goodness of fruit at its core!
