JellySave

Global Jellies and Jams Market

Growth Projection

The global jam market, jams and fruit sweets surpassed USD 8 billion em 2024, with projected growth of 4,2% per year until 2032.

Despite the growth, the sector faces technical and economic challenges:

  • Increase in pectin cost and supply volatility.
  • Need for clean labels, avoiding artificial additives.
  • Syneresis control and texture maintenance during shelf life.
  • Reformulations to reduce sugar without compromising consistency.
  • Pressure for productive efficiency and reduction of losses.

These factors require natural solutions, versatile and with high stability.

JellySave is a citrus functional matrix obtained by a clean process, no effluents and no aggressive chemicals.

  • Designed for jelly and jam applications, acts as:
    Texture and body stabilizer.
  • Partial or total pectin replacement.
  • Syneresis and phase separation controller.
  • Moisture retention agent for higher yield.

Challenge

Syneresis Control and Storage Stability

Fruit products with high water content tend to release liquid over time, compromising appearance and acceptance.

The citrus matrix of Jelly Save® maintains the cohesion of the gel network, reducing syneresis by up to 85% after 30 dias, even in products with lower solids content.

The result is a uniform texture, with natural shine and absence of free liquid on the surface.

Partial or total replacement of Pectin

The price of pectin has been showing variations above 20% in certain markets.

JellySave possibilita a substituição parcial ou total, maintaining stable gelation and viscosity, even at low pH (2,8–3,5).

This solution optimizes costs and maintains sensory perception equivalent to the standard product.

Clean Label and Consumer Communication

More than 65% of consumers associate short, natural ingredients with higher quality (fmcggurus.com).

Com JellySave, is it possible to communicate:

  • Unique ingredient of citrus origin.
  • Free from gums and artificial thickeners.
  • Traceability and plant origin.

Sugar Reduction with Body and Texture Maintenance

Sugar reduction impacts firmness and gelling.

O JellySave compensa essa perda estrutural, allowing a reduction of up to 30% in sugar content without texture collapse.

Maintains stable viscosity and uniform spreadability throughout shelf life.

Compatibility with Thermal Processes

A performance do JellySave se mantém em processos de pasteurização e envase a quente, without precipitating or losing viscosity.

Ideal for industrial lines with continuous or batch processing, ensuring repeatability and stability.

Sustainability and Circular Economy

Produced from citrus peel, o JellySave integra o conceito de economia circular, without generating effluents, GMO-free and allergen-free.

Offers competitive advantage for brands seeking to combine functionality with positive environmental impact.

Time to Market with a Technical Base

With DOE application via MODDE® software, a Fiber Citrus® entrega formulações otimizadas com:

  • Syneresis tests, firm, viscosity and thermal stability.
  • Simulation of partial/total pectin replacement.
  • Prototyping in up to 2 weeks.

This reduces risks, accelerates launches and ensures technical predictability (gminsights.com).

Conclusion

O JellySave solves the main challenges of the jelly and jam sector with:

  • Significant reduction in syneresis.
  • Effective replacement for pectin and gums.
  • Stability in acidic pH and thermal processes.
  • Proven sustainability and traceability.

A Fiber Citrus® offers technical co-development and applied intelligence to integrate functionality, economy and clean label appeal.
