Physicochemical and Sensory Properties of Davidson Plum (Davidsonia jerseyana) Sorbet, a Potential for New Functional Food Product

The Australian native foods, despite high phytochemical composition, are severely under- utilized in research and on the commercial market. One of these plants is the Davidson plum (Davidsonia jerseyana), a nutrient-dense and sustainable food ingredient. The study aimed to develop functional fruit sorbets incorporating freeze-dried Davidson plum powder (0–20% w/w) and evaluate their physicochemical, antioxidant, and sensory properties. Sorbets were created using strawberry, raspberry,...
