The Smart Ingredient Behind the Most Delicious Fruit Yogurt
St-Aubin, Switzerland
APIPHEN launches an innovative raw fruit & honey blend that transforms clean-label yogurt recipes
Swiss innovation company APIPHEN Sàrl is proud to unveil FRUITONATE, a patented low-temperature fruit preparation that elevates yogurt to a new standard of taste, nutrition, and sustainability. Crafted at temperatures below 42°C and with no added sugar, pectin, preservatives, or starches, FRUITONATE is the natural choice for dairy producers seeking simplicity and transparency on their labels.
At ANUGA 2025, APIPHEN introduces FRUITONATE as the premium clean-label ingredient for fruit yogurt, combining only two ingredients: fruits and acacia honey.
“We believe fruit yogurt should taste like real fruits flavor – not sugar sweet, with aromas and starch!” says Simona Bisboaca, inventor, founder and CEO of APIPHEN. “FRUITONATE makes that possible, with an ingredient list consumers can understand without a dictionary.”
