Fruit Purée / Fruit Glaze

Fruit Purée / Fruit Glaze is a smooth fruit spread or glaze made from cooked or mashed fruits (berries, apricot, etc.) used as a topping, filling or finishing glaze in many cuisines and baked goods. It’s known for adding bright fruit flavor and a glossy finish to pastries, tarts and breakfast dishes. Nutritionally, Fruit Purée / Fruit Glaze is fruit-forward but concentrated in sugars — it typically contains about 27g of sugar per 100g — with only small amounts of protein and fat and modest fiber. It can still contribute vitamin C and some fruit-derived antioxidants depending on the fruit used. From a health perspective, this kind of purée or glaze is useful for flavor but is best used in small amounts or chosen in unsweetened/reduced-sugar forms if you want to limit added sugars; choosing whole or mashed fruit alternatives boosts fiber and satiety while keeping the same fruit character.
