4) Blend GROUP 4 into Group 1, 2 and 3. Add preservative (as per manufacturer's recommendation) to extend the fruit mince shelf life.

MAKE-UP PROCEDURE
Using the Unbaked EOI 2.75'' shells, half fill with fruit mince filling above (or your preferred RTU fruit mince filling), then top with the Unbaked EOI Mixed round pastry lids.

BAKING:
Bake at 200°c for approximately 15 minutes until golden brown.

FINISHING INSTRUCTIONS
After removal from oven, dredge with icing or caster sugar.

POINTS OF IMPORTANCE
If you don't want to use mixed peel replace its weight with fruit of your choice.

For best results, place fruit mince in storage for a minimum of 5-7 days, stir the mince daily. To extend the shelf life past 7 days, ensure that a preservative is added to group 4.
