Review of White Peach Puree

I ordered this puree on the recommendation of a website I've since lost. The author described the puree as the perfect complement to champagne when making a Bellini.

I said what the heck and went to place an order, but then saw it might not arrive in time. I called up the customer service department and spoke with Anita, who said she'd be happy to ship the order out a day earlier after I placed it (which I did!). Sure enough, the order came wrapped carefully and packed with dry ice (don't touch with your bare fingers!) and still frozen.

I threw a party with a case of champagne and three containers of this puree, and I can vouch that it was an excellent party! All my guests absolutely loved the puree and gravitated towards it over the other drinks I provided. I can't vouch for the puree when cooking, but as the label says, Perfect in Bellini Cocktails!

Product Description
White Peach is considered an Asian delicacy. A subtle, delicate fruit in flavor, the pulp is white with red veins running out from the stone-pit in its center. These red veins are what make our White Peach puree "blush". It lends a clean, fresh and delicate flavor to beverages such as the famed Bellini Cocktail.

Review of Blueberry Puree

This and all the other purees are excellent and can be used infinite ways.The only drawback:very expensive shipping.

Product Description
A native fruit of North America, blueberry, is deep blue in color and rich in flavor. Our Blackberry puree is out of this world with its natural flavor, texture and sweetness. It is truly all American!

Review of Mango Puree

Item arrived quickly and frozen on dry ice.After sampling a thawed container, I have to say this is the best canned mango product I've tried.It was very sweet like a fresh mango should taste....NOT like the typical flavorless mango mush in heavy syrup.This would be good for anything requiring mangos from a fruit smoothie to mango nut bread to mango wine.I've got 6 gallons of mango wine going and so far so good!

I also contacted The Perfect Puree's customer service before ordering and they provided me with the information I needed on sugar content.

Will definitely buy more and possibly try some of the other purees they sell.

Product Description
Grown in tropical and sub tropical regions around the world, Mango, within the past ten years, has become popular in the world over for its rich yellow/orange color, full-bodied tropical flavor and aroma. Our Mango puree is made from a blend of mangoes from all growing regions. This velvety smooth puree has a hint of suger added to accentuate its truly tropical flavor.

Review of Red Raspberry Puree

Excellent product.I ordered the Key Lime.Though it is extremely concentrated a little goes a long way.Made a great Key Lime Pie.Only complaint is the shipping.The shipping is more than the product itself.Probably won't order again.

Product Description
Red Raspberry is a classic favorite with its bold berry flavor and outstanding red-purple color. Our Red Raspberry puree is made from premium grade fruit harvested at the peak of season. Pureed smooth with all seeds extracted, a hint of sugar is added to balance the natural tartness of the berry.

Review of Blood Orange Concentrate

Fantastic! Makes the best blood-orange margaritas and martinis ever... and mixed in with a bit of key lime and pineapple juice and a pinch or two of spices, a wonderful Carne Asada style marinade!

The frozen concentrate is ultra-easy to use, and a wonderful way to keep fresh-tasting juice that's normally pretty hard to find, close at hand! :)

Super-fast and courteous shipping by seller, too! First-rate!

Product Description
Made from 100% blood oranges, this classic Sicilian ingredient offers a rich deep orange-red color and citrus flavor. It provides an aromatic, intense citrus flavor without diluting a recipe.

Review of Meyer Lemon Concentrate

I'm a huge fan of using Meyer lemon juice in just about everything. But the fresh fruit can be really hard to find, especially during the off-season. This is the answer to my prayers! I use this when cooking seafood, making drinks, salad dressings, baking... you name it! Always tastes fresh, and it's such a convenient way to keep this precious elixir ready to use! Thanks, Perfect Puree! :D

Product Description
Fresh Meyer Lemon is less acidic than the more common Eureka lemon. Its distinctive and comlex citrus flavor has hints of sweet lime,lemon and mandarin orage. Our Meyer Lemon Concentrate captures the fruit's unique flavor characteristics and perfumy aroma, with no added sugar or artificial flavors.
