Mandarin - Natural Concentrated Paste 1,5kg - Sosa

Sosa Natural Concentrated Mandarin Paste — citrus intensity and natural freshness

Sosa's Natural Concentrated Mandarin Paste is made with 30% mandarin juice from Italy and yellow mandarin essential oil (0.3%) — a dual aromatic source that captures the full freshness and characteristic sweetness of mandarin. Its natural orange colour is achieved through plant-based beta-carotene (E160a(iii)). Clean Label certified, with 100% natural origin ingredients, available year-round regardless of seasonality.

Production

Mandarin juice (30%) is combined with a fruit extract (carob, apple) for texture, citric acid for flavour balance, and yellow mandarin essential oil (0.3%) to intensify the fruity and floral aromatic profile. The characteristic orange colour is achieved through plant-based beta-carotene (E160a(iii)). Amidated pectin (E440ii) and carrageenan (E407) ensure the paste's consistency and homogeneity.
