Decas Cranberry Products has added the ultra high-fiber Uchuva superfruit from Colombia to its dried fruit ingredient offerings. Otherwise known as Goldenberry or Cape Gooseberry, the sweetened dried fruit has three times more fiber than a similar serving of prunes. One 40-gram serving of sweetened dried Colombian Uchuva delivers 40% of the daily fiber requirement based on a 2000-calorie reference diet. Uchuva has a unique, sweet-tangy flavor and will most likely be found as an ingredient in trail mixes and nutrition bars.
