Pink Guava Pulp
Pink guava pulp is manufactured from high-quality pink guava fruits. Pink guava is a tropical fruit which is known for its unique taste, aroma and pink-coloured pulp. Guavas are categorized based on the colour of their flesh. The pink guava puree is sweeter than White Guava Pulp/Puree and has a stronger aroma. The Pink coloured flesh is due to the presence of a pigment called carotenoid. This is the same pigment that gives distinct colour to carrots and tomatoes. Though the pink guava has its origin in South America, it is also abundant in many areas of Asia and South Africa. In India, pink guava is predominantly cultivated in Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra.
