10 lb. IQF Chunks of Pineapple

Details

Harvested at the peak of ripeness, these versatile 10 lb. IQF chunks of pineapples are then quickly and individually frozen to maintain their freshness at their best form. Keeping the pineapples in their frozen state, add them into smoothies for a tropically sweet treat. Thawing these pineapples allows them to be used when baking pineapple upside-down cake to sell in your bakery case, or to be sliced and served warm with vanilla ice cream for your dessert menu.

Macerate these pineapples to fill danishes, hand pies, and vanilla cake fillings for a fun pineapple flavor! Plus, when macerated or made into a jam, this pineapple can be used in trifles, sorbets, and topping off panna cottas. Keeping them whole or creating housemade syrup is another wonderful and easy way to use this frozen fruit to enhance waffles, pancakes, and crepes, or fold into yogurt and ricotta for breakfast items. Plus, a syrup base can be added into shaken specialty cocktails for a fun, fruity way to mix things up! With so many creations to be discovered, your next signature menu item will benefit from these IQF chunks of pineapples.

When fruits are first picked, they start to lose their nutritional value, and freezing in masses lumps the fruit together. Using the IQF method prevents this from happening, and instead keeps the fruit's flavor, structure, nutritional benefits, and natural appearance intact, letting your dishes look and taste their best every time. Thanks to their preservation, the pineapples taste deliciously fresh; customers will never guess they were actually frozen!
