30 lb. IQF Diced Papaya

Details

Harvested at the peak of ripeness, these versatile 30 lb. IQF diced papayas are then quickly and individually frozen to maintain their freshness at their best form. Arriving conveniently pre-diced, adding these papayas to your menu allows so many versatile options, while saving on the cost of labor. Keeping the papayas in their frozen state, add them into smoothies for a tropically sweet treat that's loaded with vitamins and other nutrients. Thawing these papayas allows them to be used when making sorbet, a topping for panna cottas, or fruity, tropical tarts for your dessert menu.

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 papayas.

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 papayas taste deliciously fresh; customers will never guess they were actually frozen!
