Mandarins in light syrup

Mandarins in light syrup are a sweet and juicy ingredient widely used in baking and dessert preparation. They consist of peeled and segmented mandarins preserved in a syrup with a lower sugar concentration, providing a mild and refreshing flavor without being overly sweet.

Mandarins, originally from Southeast Asia, have been cultivated and appreciated worldwide for their sweet taste and easily separable segments. In light syrup, these fruits allow for the incorporation of a natural citrus touch to recipes such as cakes, pies, fruit salads, and cold desserts, also adding a delicate and juicy texture.

Properties: Mandarins are an excellent source of vitamin C and antioxidants, which help strengthen the immune system and combat cellular aging. Although they contain added sugars due to the syrup, the light syrup reduces the calorie content compared to more concentrated syrups, making this product a balanced option for sweetening without excess.

In different regions of Latin America, mandarins in light syrup may also be known as canned mandarins, candied mandarins, or simply syruped mandarins. Their versatility and flavor make them an ideal ingredient to add a special touch to your recipes.
