- Abstract
Fruit leather is a traditional fruit snack, which can be produced from a variety of fruits. It is high in carbohydrate, energy, minerals and fiber. It does not require cold storage. It can be kept under ambient room conditions in cool and dry place. Due to its reduced weight, it can be shipped and stored easily. Fruit leathers can be produced by different methods; however, in Turkey, fruit juice or puree and starch mixture are heated and then poured as thin layer in a traditional production. It is dried in this shape, and drying is performed under sun light or in hot air dryers. In this study, the production methods, composition and nutritional values, ingredients used in the production, packaging and storage of fruit leathers are reviewed.
