Quality and Selection Criteria
Firm and homogeneous fruit paste with good cutting resistance and a consistent burgundy to wine-red coloration. It should retain a clean fruity aroma, characteristic sweet flavor and a surface free from mold, fermentation, abnormal moisture or contamination. The product should produce clean, defined cuts without excessive crumbling or liquid separation.
Origin
Mexico.
Tejocote is a traditional Mexican fruit historically used in both cooked preparations and fruit preserves. Ate is produced by cooking fruit pulp with sugar until a concentrated, firm and glossy paste develops. In commercial burgundy-colored tejocote ate, an important distinction should be made between the fruit's natural color and the finished product: tejocote itself does not naturally produce the intense wine-red coloration typically associated with this type of commercial ate. Food coloring may therefore be used in commercial formulations to standardize and intensify its characteristic red-burgundy appearance. The specific coloring agent used in Dulmex® should be confirmed directly from the product ingredient label or manufacturer's specification before being declared in the technical sheet.
