What it is
This is a smooth puree made from organic apples and strawberries. It is a simple blend of fruit, processed to create a consistent texture. The natural sweetness comes from the fruits themselves. It is typically found in a convenient pouch or jar for easy serving and storage. The organic certification indicates that the fruits were grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.

You can serve this puree directly from its packaging as a quick snack, especially for young children. It blends well into smoothies, adding natural sweetness and fruit flavor.
