The Source and Selection of Frozen Blackcurrants

Frozen blackcurrants are sourced from prime growing regions known for their optimal climate and soil conditions. These regions provide the perfect environment for blackcurrants to thrive, resulting in fruits with high sugar content and rich flavor. For example, some well - known blackcurrant growing areas can yield fruits with a sugar content of up to 15 - 18 degrees Brix, which is significantly higher than those from less - favorable regions.

After harvesting, a strict selection process is implemented. Only blackcurrants that meet specific size, color, and ripeness criteria are chosen for freezing. This meticulous selection ensures that the final frozen product maintains a consistent high quality. Approximately 80% of the freshly harvested blackcurrants pass this rigorous selection, guaranteeing that the end - user receives only the best.

Advanced Quick - Freezing Technology

The quick - freezing technology used for blackcurrants is a key factor in preserving their quality. Advanced freezing equipment can rapidly lower the temperature of blackcurrants from ambient to - 30°C within 30 minutes. This rapid cooling process forms small ice crystals within the fruit cells, minimizing damage to the cell structure. In contrast, traditional freezing methods may take hours to reach the same low temperature, resulting in larger ice crystals that can rupture cell walls and lead to a loss of texture and flavor.

The principle behind this advanced quick - freezing technology is based on the physical properties of water. When water freezes slowly, it forms large ice crystals. However, when the freezing rate is extremely fast, water molecules do not have enough time to aggregate into large crystals, instead forming numerous tiny ice crystals that cause less damage to the fruit's internal structure.

Protection of Flavor and Nutrition

The advanced quick - freezing technology effectively protects the flavor and nutritional value of blackcurrants. Flavor compounds are locked in during the rapid freezing process, ensuring that the frozen blackcurrants taste almost as fresh as the freshly picked ones. In terms of nutrition, blackcurrants are rich in vitamin C, anthocyanins, and other antioxidants. Studies have shown that quick - frozen blackcurrants can retain up to 90% of their original vitamin C content and over 85% of their anthocyanins after six months of frozen storage.

Application in the Food Processing Industry

Frozen blackcurrants have a wide range of applications in the food processing industry. In the production of jams and jellies, they provide a natural and intense flavor. The high - quality frozen blackcurrants can increase the marketability of the final jam product by up to 20% due to their superior taste and appearance. In the beverage industry, they are used to make fruit juices, smoothies, and cocktails, adding a rich and healthy element.

In the bakery industry, frozen blackcurrants are often used as fillings for pastries and cakes. Their consistent quality ensures that each batch of products has a uniform taste and appearance. Additionally, in the dairy industry, they are incorporated into ice creams and yogurts, enhancing the flavor and nutritional profile of these products.
