Project description
Reinforcing the innovative development of superior quality fruit snacks
Although the consumption of fruit is a prerequisite for a healthy diet, the rapid speed of the modern lifestyle prevents people from achieving their optimum daily intake. This challenge could be addressed through the production of natural, nutritive, healthy and personalised ready-to-eat snacks. The EU-funded FRIETS project will create a solid framework for the development and marketisation of customised, nutritious and innovative, soft fruit smart snacks that contain no added sugar, sodium or chemical preservatives. Bringing together a team of cross-disciplinary scientists and a network of international SMEs, FRIETS will focus on the optimisation of smart, low-impact production and the sustainable development of superior quality processed berries for products tailor-made to the needs of specific groups.
