Pectin and Pectocellulosic compositions are prepared by heating and mixing comminuted pectin-containing material to solubilize pectin. Pectin, a pectocellulosic product, or a combination thereof is then recovered. The products produced are incorporated in food and other products.

Methods for making pectin and pectocellulosic products

Pecto-cellulosic compositions are prepared by treating comminuted citrus peel or other pectin-containing material in an acidified aqueous solution to solubilize pectin. The pectin is then recovered in the cellulosic matrix of the citrus peel by adjusting the pH of the solution and dried. The resulting pecto-cellulosic product is incorporated in food and other products.

Pecto-cellulosic product from whole citrus peel and other materials

The invention relates to a dry mix comprising coarse, sanding sugar particles having an emulsifier uniformly spread across the sugar surfaces. The dry mix also contains a food acid and dry pectin ground to a particle size less than 200 mesh. The dry pectin mix is utilized to manufacture jam or jelly preparations.
