Trends in production of functional marmalade

Abstract

The scientific review article allows to assess the relevance of scientific research of marmalade on the basis of modern sources of non-traditional types of fruit and berry raw materials, innovative technologies, functional ingredients intended to strengthen and preserve the health of the population, especially those living or working in extreme climatic conditions. Much attention is paid to the use of marmalade, not only as a favorite children 's dessert, but as a food product that can have a preventive effect on various body systems.

Marmalade production technology continues to improve. For example, the use of the method of "syringe" with the help of a vacuum syringe, the possibility to preserve biologically active substances contained in fruit and berry raw materials to ensure long shelf life. This technology is in demand in the organization of nutrition of the population in hard-to-reach regions, for medical purposes. In some countries, marmalade is used as a mandatory breakfast element containing a complete complex of biologically active substances, toning and thinning thirst. Despite common approaches to marmalade production, there are differences in quality, composition, food and energy value across the world. Despite centuries of marmalade history, it remains the subject of increased scientific attention from scientists and consumers.
