Boiron 517 Watermelon Puree captures the bright, juicy sweetness of ripe watermelon in a smooth, ready to use form. Produced by Les Vergers Boiron in France, it is made from 100% watermelon with no added sugar, so the clean, refreshing flavor comes through true. Each 1 KG pack arrives frozen and is available in bulk and wholesale quantities for high volume kitchens.


What It Is

This is a frozen watermelon puree made from 100% fruit, sourced from watermelon grown in Vietnam. Boiron crushes and refines whole selected fruit and pasteurizes it to hold the natural color and taste, with no added sugar, colorings, preservatives, or thickeners. It is guaranteed non GMO and non-ionized. The result is a clean, single ingredient puree that performs consistently every time, free from the seasonal swings of fresh fruit.


Flavor and Texture

The puree is red in color with a sweet, fresh taste and a subtle vegetable note characteristic of ripe watermelon. The texture is liquid and lightly pulpy, smooth enough to pour and blend cleanly with no rind or seeds to work around. With no added sugar, you keep full control of the sweetness in your finished recipe.


Culinary Uses

Watermelon puree is a refreshing base across sweet, savory, and beverage work. It is well suited to:

  • Sorbets, ice creams, and granitas
  • Cocktails, mocktails, and lemonades
  • Cold soups, smoothies, and yogurt
  • Cakes, tarts, mousses, and plated desserts

Dietary and Allergen Information

This puree is certified Kosher and is suitable for vegan, vegetarian, and coeliac diets. Per the manufacturer specification, none of the major regulated allergens are present in the product, on site, or through cross contamination. It contains only watermelon.


Storage and Handling

Store frozen at -18 degrees Celsius. To defrost, Les Vergers Boiron recommends thawing the product in its original closed packaging in the refrigerator or in a bain-marie, then mixing the whole product for an even consistency. Thawing in the refrigerator at +2 to +4 degrees Celsius takes about 24 hours. Once defrosted in its closed package, it can be held for up to 10 days. Defrosting and post-thaw storage are the user's responsibility and should follow good hygiene and HACCP practices.


Bulk and Wholesale Options

Sold by the piece in a 1 KG pack and shipped frozen. Available in bulk and wholesale, with quantity pricing available for larger orders and production volume.


Brand and Origin

Manufactured by Les Vergers Boiron, a family owned fruit puree producer based in Valence, France, and a longstanding name in professional pastry and bar programs worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does watermelon puree separate after thawing?
Some natural separation in watermelon puree is normal, since there are no stabilizers or thickeners in it. Boiron recommends mixing the whole product after defrosting to bring it back to an even consistency. A quick stir or blend before measuring is enough.
Will watermelon puree set or gel on its own?
Watermelon puree stays liquid on its own, because it has no added pectin, gelatin, or thickeners. To build a set in panna cotta, pâte de fruit, or a glaze, you add your own setting agent. This lets you control the final texture and sweetness.
How does watermelon puree hold its color when cooked?
Watermelon puree is naturally red and is pasteurized to help retain that color, but high heat over time can mute the shade. For the brightest result, keep cooking to a minimum. Cold preparations like sorbets and cocktails show off the color best
Can you blend watermelon puree with other fruit purees?
Watermelon puree blends well with other single ingredient purees for custom flavors. It pairs naturally with berries, citrus, and cucumber or herb notes in drinks and sorbets. Since each puree has its own sweetness and acidity, taste as you combine and adjust.
