6. Production process outline.
Raw papaya fruit is first washed to remove adhering dirt. The skin is then
peeled and the fruit slit into two halves. The seeds are removed and the fruit cut
into longitudinal pieces. These pieces are fed into the cubing machine to get the
cubes of desired thickness. The cubes are first dipped in a sugar solution of 45
degrees brix and allowed to soak for 24 hours. In the sugar syrup, the necessary
preservatives are added. The cubes are removed and transferred to a tank
containing sugar syrup at 60 degrees brix. After soaking for another 24 hours the
cubes are transferred to a tank containing sugar syrup at 80 degrees brix. The
excess syrup is drained and the cubes dried in a tray drier. The sugar syrup to
the desired concentration can be prepared in the syrup kettle.
