Raspberry Filling 50% Fruit for Professional Pastry
Menz&Gasser Chef Pro raspberry is a professional baking preparation with 50% fruit, engineered to hold its shape in the oven and to fill, glaze and layer cleanly. Supplied in a resealable 2 kg food bucket, it gives pastry kitchens an intense, authentic raspberry flavour with consistent, bake-stable results, not a breakfast jam but a technical filling for high-volume production.
About Menz&Gasser
Menz&Gasser (founded 1935, production in Novaledo, Trentino) is a European leader in jams and fruit preparations for HoReCa, with full supply-chain traceability and food-safety certifications. The Chef Professional line is their range for bakeries and pastry labs.
Why 50% Fruit
At 50% fruit, above the 35-45% of standard jams, the flavour is more intense and the colour deeper, so the finished pastry tastes and looks of real raspberry rather than sugar.
Professional Uses
Tarts (250-350 g spread on a 28 cm shortcrust base before baking; the heat-stable pectin prevents run-off); cake and sponge layering (80-120 g per layer, cold); brioche and croissants (15-20 g per piece by piping bag); krapfen and doughnuts (inject 20-25 g cold after frying); and glazing fruit tartlets for a glossy finish.
Yield
A 2 kg bucket fills roughly 8-10 tarts (28 cm), or 100-130 brioche/krapfen (15-20 g each), or 16-25 three-layer cakes.
Storage
Keep in a cool, dry place before opening. After opening, refrigerate at 0-4 C, keep covered and use a clean utensil each time to avoid mould. Gluten free.
Pairings
Raspberry pairs with white chocolate, almond and frangipane (Bakewell tart), pistachio, vanilla and fresh cheeses for cheesecake; its acidity balances very sweet preparations.
