Fruit rolls make delicious snacks ready to
have on hand. Here are some steps to ensure
perfect fruit rolls:
•  Fresh or canned fruit can be used to make

fruit rolls, simply substitute weight for
weight. However, do not combine a mixture
of canned and fresh fruit in the same roll
up. If using fresh fruit, make sure it is of
good quality without soft or discoloured
patches.

•  If using fresh fruit, you will need to peel

and cook it first so that it can be pureed
in a blender for the preparation required to
make rolls.

•  The prepared fruit must be evenly spread

over the fruit roll trays to ensure even
drying times.

•  The fruit should be spread to an even

thickness of about .5mm. The fruit,
once pureed, needs to be a spoonable
consistency. If the mixture is too runny the
end result will be affected.

•  If mixture is too runny, you can add pureed

apple or pear to the mixture to make up
the desired consistency.

•  Make sure the fruit rolls are dried

continuously at the recommended
temperature/setting and time.

•  Once dried, the fruit rolls should be pliable

and without any soft or sticky patches on
top or underneath.

•  Remove fruit rolls from trays when still

warm and roll up to form logs.

•  Wrap in non-stick baking paper and store

in an airtight container in a cool, dark
place for up to 1 week. Do not store in the
fridge as the fruit rolls need to be stored in
a moisture-free area to maintain a pliable,
chewy texture.

•  Suitable fruits for rolls include: Apple,

apricot, berries, cherries, mango, peaches,
pears, and plums.
