Dried Pears

Dried Pears – Naturally Sweet & Aromatic Mediterranean Fruit

Product Overview

Dried Pears are a delicate and naturally sweet fruit known for their soft texture, floral aroma, and subtle honey-like flavor. Rich in fiber, vitamin C, and natural sugars, they are an excellent ingredient for clean-label snacks, bakery fillings, and confectionery applications. Dried Pears retain the essence of fresh fruit while offering long shelf life and stable performance in food formulations.

At Tuna Sourcing, we supply ISO 22000-certified Dried Pears sourced from Turkey’s Aegean and Central Anatolian regions, where high-quality varieties such as Santa Maria, Deveci, and Williams are grown. Carefully sliced and gently dried under controlled conditions, our pears maintain their light golden color, natural sweetness, and soft chewiness. Suitable for bulk use, industrial processing, or private-label retail packaging, Tuna Sourcing ensures consistent quality and reliable export supply worldwide.
