DESCRIPTION,A mixed fruit nectar is the unfermented but fermentable pulpy or non-pulpy,product, intended for direct consumption, obtained by blending the fruit juice,and/or total edible part ground and/or sieved of two or more species of sound,ripe fruits, concentrated or unconcentrated, with water and sugars or honey, and,preserved exclusively by physical means. In case of fruit with a high sugar,content the addition of sugar may be omitted.,3. ESSENTIAL COMPOSITION AND QUALITY FACTORS,3.1 Minimum Content of Fruit Ingredients,The product should contain not less than 50% m/m of single strength fruit,ingredient or the equivalent derived from any concentrated fruit ingredient,except in cases where high acidity, strong flavour or high pulp content make,lower content necessary. In no case should the content of fruit ingredient be,less than 25% m/m.,3.2 Sugars,3.2.1 If sugars are added they must be as defined by the Codex Alimentarius,Commission.,3.2.2 Honey, as defined by the Codex Alimentarius Commission, may be used if it,is the sole added sweetening ingredient.,3.3 Soluble Solids,The soluble solid content of the product should be not more than 20% m/m,as determined by refractometer at 20 °C, uncorrected for acidity and read as °,Brix on the International Sucrose Scales.,3.5 Ethanol Content,The ethanol content should not exceed 3 g/kg.,4. FOOD ADDITIVES,Maximum level,4.1 Citric acid ) Limited by GMP,4.2 Malic acid ),CAC/GL 12 Page 2 of 4,Maximum level,4.3 L-Ascorbic acid 400 mg/kg in,the final,product,4.4 Carbon dioxide Limited by GMP,5. CONTAMINANTS,Maximum level,5.1 Arsenic (As) 0.2 mg/kg,5.2 Lead (Pb) 0.3 mg/kg 1,5.3 Copper (Cu) 5 mg/kg,5.4 Zinc (Zn) 5 mg/kg,5.5 Iron (Fe) 15 mg/kg,5.6 Tin (Sn) 200 mg/kg 1,5.7 Sum of copper, zinc and iron 20 mg/kg,5.8 Sulphur dioxide 10 mg/kg,6. HYGIENE,6.1 It is recommended that the products covered by the provisions of this,standard be prepared in accordance with the Recommended International Code of,Hygienic Practice for Canned Fruit and Vegetable Products (Ref. No. CAC/RCP 2-,1969) and the General Principles of Food Hygiene (Ref. No. CAC/RCP 1-1969,Rev. 2 (1985)) recommended by the Codex Alimentarius Commission.,6.2 When tested by appropriate methods of sampling and examination, the,product:,(a) should be free from microorganisms capable of development under,normal conditions of storage; and,(b) should not contain any substances originating from microorganisms in,amounts which may represent a hazard to health.,7. WEIGHTS AND MEASURES,7.1 Fill of Container,7.1.1 Minimum Fill,The nectar should occupy not less than 90% v/v of the water capacity of,the container. The water capacity of the container is the volume of distilled,water at 20 °C which the sealed container will hold when completely filled.,1 These limits remain under review, taking into account a sampling plan.,CAC/GL 12 Page 3 of 4,8. LABELLING,In addition to the requirements of the Codex General Standard for the,Labelling of Prepackaged Foods (CODEX STAN 1-1985) the following provisions,should apply:,8.1 The Name of the Food,8.1.1 The name of the food to be declared on the label should be either "fruit,nectar" or "mixed fruit nectar" where either the word fruit is replaced by the,names of the types of fruits used in descending order of their quantitative,predominance or the name is followed by the types of fruits in this order. If,more than two types of fruit are used these names may be given separately in the,proximity to the name of the product. In this case the name of the product,should be "mixed fruit nectar".,8.1.2 The words "minimum fruit content x%" should appear in close proximity to,the name of the product where "x" is the actual minimum percentage of fruit,ingredient calculated to single strength in the final product.,8.2 List of Ingredients,8.2.1 A complete list of ingredients, including added water, should be declared,on the label in descending order of proportion in accordance with the relevant,requirements applicable to the individual nectars. For this purpose concentrated,fruit ingredients shall be calculated to single strength. Where, however,information has been included in the name of the food (Section 8.1.1), it need,not be repeated in the list of ingredients.,8.2.2 In the case of mixed fruit nectar, containing con……
