Abstract:
Fruit toffees are made from pulpy fruits like banana, mango, jackfruit, guava etc. Fruits are
grown seasonally and are perishable in nature. Fruit preservation techniques enable the
mankind to enjoy fruits even during off-season and fruit toffees one such product. Fruit
toffees are highly nutritious products compared to sugar boiled confectionaries. The
prerequisite for this project is availability of fruits all round the year. The state of
Uttaranchal produces many fruits and thus availability round the year would not be a
problem. The technology is easy and standardised and the capital cost of the project is also
not very high.
