Grape peach-like

Numerous y- and 8-lactones were identified in Tokaji aszu grapes (Miklosy and Kerenyi, 2004 Miklosy et al., 2004). The odor notes of the y-lactones were described as resin- and caramel-like, roasted, or honey, while the 8-lactones exhibited characteristic notes of coconut, chocolate, and peach. The same lactones had been identified earlier from botrytized wines but not from normal wines (Schreier et al., 1976). Lactones are mostly found in oxidatively aged wines but seem to develop in fruit due to the oxidizing effect of B. cinerea, water loss, or Maillard reactions (Miklosy et al., 2004). 

When certain fruits, such as mangos and peaches, are in season, I buy them at their best taste and lowest price, let them get nice and ripe, and store them in packets in the freezer. Many stores also stock bags of frozen fruits and berries. I keep frozen orange juice and red grape juice concentrate handy as well. Egg substitute is an excellent protein source to balance the meal s nutritional profile. If your smoothie comes out thicker than you d like, just add more milk, water, or juice to thin it out to your preference. 

Table II shows that sucrose levels are highest in peach fruit and very low in blackberry, cherry, and grape. The % C.V. for sucrose content for many of the fruit samples is extremely high, most likely because of enzymic or chemical hydrolysis. The average sucrose content of plum fruit is 38 of total sugars, while processed plums contain only 1. Presence of large quantities of sucrose in prune juice has, in fact, been used as an indication of adulteration ( ). Cherries and grapes contain invertase Cllj 12) which may account for sucrose not being detected in some samples and may also explain the high % C.V. for those fruits. In examining apple Juice concentrates, we did not detect sucrose in seven-fold concentrates whereas we did in fo ar-fold apple concentrates (7.) > the time-temperature conditions allowing for complete hydrolysis in the more concentrated product.
