CHAPTER - 1
 INTRODUCTION
Tutti Frutti, is referred as candied raw papaya as it made from the
extraction of raw papaya. These small-sized cubical titbits have a fruity
and sweet taste and come in different colours such as red yellow and
green.

Major uses of tutti-frutti as a candy are mentioned below:

The primary ingredient includes raw papaya which is then mixed with
sugar and artificial colouring, to form these tiny colourful cubicles.
Papaya originated in tropical America while Portuguese introduced
papaya in India from Malaccса during 1611. At present it is cultivated
throughout the world in tropical and sub- tropical climate. It is the second
most nutritive fruit as it has a high nutritional value. It is a good source of
folate, vitamin A, magnesium, copper, pantothenic acid and fibre. In
terms of calories it only gives about 39 calories per 100 grams.

Production of Tutti-frutti is directly linked to the availability and cultivation

of papaya. Being a tropical crop, papaya needs a high level of humidity
and temperature and relatively sensitive to frost and heavy rains. As far
as the soil is concerned, it can grow in a variety of soils, preferably a rich
and sandy loam.
The economic life of papaya plant is only 3 to 4 years. The yield varies
widely according to variety, soil, climate and management of the orchard.
The yield of 75-100 tonnes /ha. Is obtained in a season from a papaya
orchard depending on spacing and cultural practices.

India ranks second for fruits and vegetables producer in the world
followed by China. India, during 2017-18 has produced about 97358
thousand MT fruits and 184394thousand MT vegetables in about 6506
Thousand Ha and 10259 Thousand Ha respectively (Horticulture
statistics At a glance, 2018, MoA, & FW Gol). In spite of this, the per
capita availability of fruit in India is 107 gm/day which is below the
recommended 120 gm/day. India’s share of global exports of fresh fruits
and processed fruit products is also quite meager compared to other
major fruit producers of the world (Bung, 2012). Unfortunately, fruits
vegetables being perishable in nature get wasted to the Tune of 20-30%
in the supply chain due improper handling, transportation and poor post-
Harvest management; and only 2% of them are processed in to value
added products and the rest is consumed fresh.

Papaya (Carica papaya) is a tropical fruit having commercialimportance

because of its high and medicinal value. It belongs to Family
Caricaceae, It is delicious fruit with loaded nutrients. It is most
economical fruit of Family Caricaceae. Papaya also seems to have
antibacterial, antifungal, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and
immune- stimulating effects. Papaya is considered one of the most fruits
because it is a rich source of antioxidant nutrients (e.g., carotenes,
vitamin C. And flavonoids), the B vitamins (e.g., folate and pantothenic
acid), minerals (e.g., potassium and magnesium), and fiber. In addition,
papaya is a source of the digestive enzyme papain, which is used as an
industrial ingredient in brewing, meat tenderizing, pharmaceuticals,
beauty products, and cosmetics.

Global scenario – Papaya

 Papayas are the fourth most traded tropical fruit following
bananas, mangoes, and pineapples. Approximately 75 percent of
the world's papayas are produced in only ten countries. India
leads the world in papaya production followed by Brazil,
Indonesia, Nigeria, and Mexico.
According to the Tridge, intelligence report, total papaya
production in the world is 1,30,05,000 MT out of which India is
the largest producer of papaya in year 2016-17, with an annual
production of 57,00,000 MT followed by Brazil with less than
half of the total papaya produced by India. The table below
shows the major papaya producing countries:

Indian Scenario – Papaya

India is the largest producer of papaya in the world and has
exported 9,990 MT of papaya in the Year 2017-2018. It
produces a variety of papaya such as Pusa Delicious, Pusa
Majesty, Pusa, Dwarf, Pusa, Giant, Co. 1 to Co. 6, Surya, Pusa
Nanha, etc.
The area under papaya cultivation in India and its production
grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2% and
7.1%, respectively, during last five decades. Furthermore, the
yield of papaya has also increased at CAGR of 6.8% in the last
two decades. It is estimated that the production of papaya will
hit 10 million MT by 2030.
The major states of India that produce Papayas are highlighted
in the diagram given below:
From the table above, it can be seen that the top 5 papaya producing
states for 73% of the total papaya in production India as of 2017-18.
Andhra Pradesh is the largest producer of papaya, contributing 28% to
the production of papaya in India.
The diagram showcases that production of papaya has slightly
increased from 56,67,060 MT in 2015-16 to 59,88,830 in 2017-18.
While the area of production also increased form 1,32,000 Ha in
2015-16 to 1,38,000 ha in 2020 – 2024.

HEALTH BENEFITS AND NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION

Papayas are delicious juicy fruit with appreciated amount of
valuable nutrients, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells
from damage. Papayas are also a good source of fibre, B
vitamins, vitamin A, Vitamin E, Anti-oxidant, calcium and
potassium.
However,papayas contain a range of other plant compounds and
antioxidants that may reduce inflammation and work against
IFPT disease. Papaya contains an enzyme called papain, which
can break down the tough protein chains found in muscle meat.
Because of this, people haveused papaya to tenderize meat for
thousands of years. Papayas also contain healthy antioxidants
known as carotenoids particularly one type called lycopene.

If the papaya is ripe, it can be eaten raw. However, unripe

papaya should always be cooked before eating especially during
pregnancy, as the unripe fruit is high in latex, which can
stimulate contractions.
Compounds in papaya support the body and protect us from
conditions such as heart disease and cancer they’re also thought
to have some anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antimicrobial
benefits.
 Carbohydrates: Papaya is a delicious fruit containing just
62 calories per cup. Most of the calories in papaya come
from carbohydrates. There are almost 16 grams of
carbohydrate in a serving of papaya including fiber (2.5
grams) and naturally- occurring sugars 11 grams). The
glycemic index of papaya is 60 and the glycemic load is 9.
 Vitamins and minerals: Papaya is rich in vitamin C,
providing 88.3 milligrams per serving. For most adults, the
recommended dietary allowance of vitamin C is between
75-90 milligrams, so 1 cup of papaya just about covers
100% of vitamin C requirements. Papayas are also an
excellent source of vitamin A and more specifically, the
carotenoid lycopene.
 Potassium: Papayas are good source of Potassium. High
intake of potassium can lower blood pressure and may
reduce risk of heart disease.
Papayas are rich in various bioactive plant compounds and
anti-oxidant compounds, which are beneficial to health.
CONSTITUENTS AND HEALTH BENEFITS OF
PAPAYAS:
Papayas also have many potential health benefits. Heath benefits
described

Below:

Health benefits:
1. Heart health: Papavas contain high levels of antioxidants
vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin E. Diets high in antioxidants
may reduce the risk of heart disease. The antioxidants prevent
theoxidation of cholesterol. When cholesterol oxidizes, it’s more
likely to create blockages that lead to heart disease. Additionally,
papaya’s high fiber content may reduce the risk of heart disease.
High-fiber diets lower cholesterol levels. Papaya has folic acid,
 which is essential forconverting the amino acid homocysteine
into less harmful amino acids. High levels of homocysteine, an
amino acid primarily found in meat products, are a risk factor
for heart disease. So eating papaya in your diet may lower
homocysteine levels, reducing this risk factor.

2. Digestion and reduced inflammation: The papaya fruit contains

two enzymes, papain indichvutopapain Both enzymes digest
proteins, meaning they can help with digestion and reduce
inflammation. Papain is an ingredient in some over-the-counter
digestive supplements to help with minor upset stomach. Both
papain and chymopapain also help to reduce inflammation. They
may help acute pain, like those from burns or bruises, and they
can help with chronic inflammatory conditions like arthritis and
asthma.

3.Immune system: Eating foods high in vitamin C can help to

boost the immune system, allowing the body to fight off
bacterial and viral illnesses. Papaya has a good amount of this
antioxidant, making it part of an immune-healthy diet. Papaya is
also a good source of Vitamin A, another important vitamin for a
healthy and functional immune system.

4.Potentially protect against Prostate Cancer: Lycopene is a

natural pigment found in foods that are red or orange. Tomatoes,
watermelon, and papaya are good sources of lycopene.
Someexperts believe that eating more lycopene reduces the risk
of prostate cancer, but some studieshave been inconclusive.
However, in other studies, eating a diet high in lycopene along
with green tea reduced the risk of prostate cancer significantly.

5.Powerful Anti-oxidant Effects: Free radicals are reactive

molecules created during Your body’s metabolism. They can
 promote oxidative stress, which can lead to
disease.Antioxidants, including the carotenoids found in
papayas, can neutralize free radicals.Studies note that fermented
papaya can reduce oxidative stress in older adults and People
with prediabetes, mild hypothyroidism and liver disease.. The
reduction in Stress is attributed to papaya’s lycopene content
and ability to remove excess Iron, which is known to produce
free radicals.

6.Protect against Skin damage: Excessive free radical activity is

believed to be Responsible for much of the wrinkling, sagging
and other skin damage that occurs with Age. The vitamin C and
lycopene in papaya protect your skin and may help reduce these
Signs of aging.

PROCESSING & VALUE ADDITION:-

The fresh fruits have limited shelf life; therefore, it is necessary
to process fresh fruits in to different value added products to
increase its availability over an extended period and to stabilize
the price during the glut season. Candied fruits notably tutti
frutti is quite popular. A number of small scale units
manufacture these items and find a ready market at a profitable
price. As the consumption of bakery goods is on the increase,
the demand for tutti fruitti can also be expected to rise at the
same Papaya candy and other fruit candies can find a good
market outside India also.
Just like coconut, papaya tree is considered as “Karpaga
Viruksha” because, the various parts of the tree are used either
forhuman consumption or for animals or as raw the farm income
but also serves as a cottage industry. Papaya (Carica papaya) is a
tropical fruit having commercial importance because of its high
nutritive and medicinal value. Papaya is a power house of
nutrients and is available throughout the year. It is a rich source
of threes powerful antioxidant vitamin , vitamina and vitamin E;
the minerals, magnesium and potassium; the Fitamin
pantothenic acid and fiber. Handling papaya fruit post-harvest is
to prepare the fruits for market and also to preserve the fruits
quality so it can present on market as it demands.

Food preservation has long been an on-going challenge for

human with the methodslike, drying, salting and fermentation
being traditionally done for preservation. The processof
impregnation with sugar must not be hurried because otherwise,
the fruit would shrivel an unfit for glazing and crystallizing.
Tutti frutti is a colourful confection containing variously
chopped and candied fruits, or an artificially created flavouring
simulating the combined flavour of different fruits. Papaya is the
second most nutritive food for Mango. Tutti frutti is made from
unripe papaya fruit and contains a good amount of sugar. The
countries with the largest papaya production are India and Brazil
followed by Nigeria, Indonesia, and Mexico. Tutti frutti
manufacturing project can be initiated on a small scale basis and
it is a profitable investment option for startup entrepreneurs.
Tutti frutti is made by impregnating fruits with flavour & taste
along with attractive colour, It is useful in the preparation of
other food items such as toppings. It Provides attractiveness as
well as nutritive value to many food items. Mostly used for
Toppings for bread, ice cream, fruit bar, pulao, cakes, pastries,
custard shrikhand and Fruit salads, etc. Tutti frutti is a mass
consumption added to sweets, paan Masala also.

Production
Production refers to the process of creating goods or
services through various inputs such as labor, materials,
equipment, and resources. It involves the transformation of
raw materials or inputs into finished products or services
that meet specific quality standards.
Distribution
Distribution refers to the process of delivering goods or
products from the manufacturer or producer to the end
consumer or customer. It involves the movement of
products through various channels.
TUTTI FRUTTI PROCESSING
Tutti frutti is a jelly like cubical which is made by impregnating
fruits with flavour & taste along with attractive colour. It is
useful in the preparation of other food items such as toppings for
bread, ice cream, fruit bar, pulao, cakes, pastries, custard
shrikhand & fruit salads etc. It provides attractiveness as well as
nutritive value to many food items.
The flowchart above shows a list of the ingredients that required to
make tutti- frutti. The process of making tutti-frutti is rather simple
and can be even made at home without the use of manufacturing
equipment.

There are two main types of tutti-frutti: Western (European/American)

version and the Indian version. Western tutti frutti refers to a fruit
mixture that is preserved in brandy and prepared several months.
Indian tutti frutti is a type of candied papaya commonly used in fruit
cakes and various Indian recipes.

With emergence western food taste preferences, this has led to

increase in the demand bakery items, cold desserts etc. In fact, certain
brands such as red mango and coco berry have developed their entire
market on these desserts i.e. frozen yogurts. It is important to note that
tutti-frutti is a complimentary item to bakery and cold desserts.
Therefore, an increase in the sales for these items would also lead to
increase in sales for tutti-frutti.
Other value added products from Papaya:
Tutti-frutti is a niche flavouring item that is consumed majorly all
around the world. However, since it is just a flavouring add on, the
quantity of production and consumption will be relatively less
compared to other processed agricultural crops. The countries with
largest production of tutti-frutti are India, Brazil followed by Nigeria,
Indonesia and Mexico. It is important to note that these countries are
one top papaya producing states too.

Supply Chain of Tutti-frutti

Process of Manufacturing

There are various steps involved in the manufacturing of Tutti-frutti:

1. The first step is to wash unripe papayas with clean water and
then remove their peel with a help of peeling machine.

2. Cut the papaya lengthwise and remove seeds and fibre.

3. Blanch the pieces in boiling water for 8-10 minutes and then
cool them.

4. Prepare a sugar syrup with 30% sugar solution and 3% citric

acid.

5. Then add the pieces of papaya in boiling syrup and keep for
about 10 minutes.

6. Add colouring and other flavours to the syrup and keep these
pieces soaked for about 8-10 hours.

7. Further cut the dried pieces into smaller sizes and the put them
in a dryer a temperature of around 60° C for about 10 minutes.
 8. Further cool the pieces and then pack with moisture-proof
packaging materials.

Tutti-frutti Manufacturing Plant & Machinery

A can choose to either set up a semi-automated or a fully automatic

plant. The plant & machinery varies depending on investment,
capacity and production output. The following is a list basic
machinery in order to set up the plant:

 Papaya peeling machine

 Papaya slicing and cubing machine of SS with double rollers

and SS Hopper

 Diesel Furnace (Bhatti) with bumers, fire bricks, oil cock,

blower etc.

 LOCATION OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT AND LAND
The entrepreneur must provide description of the proposed
location, site of the project, distance from the targeted
local and distant markets; and the reasons/advantages
thereof i.e. in terms of raw materials availability, market
accessibility, logistics support, basicinfrastructure
availability etc.
The ideal locations for establishment of exclusive Papaya
Tutti Frutti processing unit are in the production clusters of
Papaya growing states/Areas such as Andhra Pradesh,
 Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharashtra, West Bengal,
Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Assam, Tamil Nadu, and
Kerala, where adequate quantities of surplus raw materials
can be available for processing.

 INSTALLED CAPACITY OF THE PAPAYA TUTTI

FRUTTIPROCESSING UNIT
The maximum installed capacity of the Papaya Tutti Frutti
manufacturing unit in the present model project is
proposed as 150 tonns/annum or 500 kg/day Papaya Tutti
Frutti. Theunit is assumed to operate 300 days/annum @
8-10 hrs/day. The 1st year is assumed to be
construction/expansion period of the project, and in the 2nd
year 70 percent capacity, 34 Mear 80 percent papacity and
4th year onwards 90 percent capacity utilizations assumed
in this model project.

 RAW MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE UNIT

A sustainable food processing unit must ensure maximum
capacity utilization andthus requires an operation of
minimum 280-300 days per year to get reasonable profit.
Therefore, ensuring uninterrupted raw materials supply
requires maintenance of adequate raw material inventory.
The processor must have linkage with producer
organizations preferably FPC’s through legal contract to
get adequate quantity and quality of raw materials which
otherwise get spoiled. In the Papaya Tutti Frutti
manufacturing project, the unit requires 350 kg/day, 400
kg/day and 450 kg/day Papaya fruit 70, 80 and 90 percent
capacity utilization, respectively. The Papaya be plucked
from plant; and then stored below 6°C temperature.
