Fresh Fruit Cuts introduces new fresh-cut pears product

Capitalizing on the growing popularity of convenience driven fresh cut snack items, and their recent success of Woot Froot sliced peaches and nectarines, Fresh Fruit Cuts has expanded their value-added product line and will begin offering fresh-cut pears in July, along with destemmed grapes and multi-pack snack bag medleys, according to the company.

“The development and understanding of the challenges of processing stonefruit provided a great deal of insight into other items including pears, which have their own demands,” said Kim Gaarde, president of Fresh Fruit Cuts. “We are now able to produce items that others are working on, but have not yet mastered based on our unique processing knowledge that focus on quality to insure optimum flavor.”

The sliced pears will cater to the today’s convenience driven consumer and offer consistent flavor and quality appeal, portion control or multi-serving packaging, according to Fresh Fruit Cuts. They will be available in 20-ounce trays, 14-ounce bags or 3-ounce individual bags and have a 21-day shelf life.
