Red Papaya Pulp

Description

Overview of Red Papaya Pulp

Red Papaya Pulp is a naturally sweet and vibrant puree extracted from select, ripe red papayas. While papaya is native to Central America and Mexico, it is now cultivated throughout the world’s tropical regions. India leads global production with an impressive annual output of approximately 3 million tonnes, primarily sourced from the orchards of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, and Karnataka.

This luxurious pulp captures the fruit’s characteristic orange-red hue and juicy, sweet flavor, making it an exceptional ingredient for premium food and beverage products. The smooth texture and natural sweetness of red papaya distinguish it from other tropical fruits, offering unique applications across the food industry.
