CLEANPineapple and coconut at 70% fruit — clean ingredients, but the sweetest jar in the range.

Pineapple and coconut milk, 70% fruit, sweetened with khandsari rather than refined sugar. Five ingredients in total: pineapple, coconut milk, khandsari, lemon and fruit pectin. No rum, despite the name.

Per 100g it carries 260 kcal, 59.3g total sugars and 3.65g fibre. Of those sugars, 37.1g are added and the rest come from the pineapple, which is the sweetest fruit in the range. This is the richest and sweetest of the five Beku spreads by a clear margin — worth knowing before you buy. A 20g serving is 52 kcal.

Keep refrigerated after opening.

Why We Like It

Seventy per cent pineapple and coconut milk, with no rum and no pina colada flavouring.
The coconut note comes from actual coconut milk.
Khandsari rather than refined white sugar is a genuine step down in processing.
No preservative, no added colour and no added flavouring.
Beku publishes the panel, and it is honest about being the sweetest of the five.

Ingredients

Pineapple

The base

With coconut milk it makes up seventy per cent of the jar. Pineapple is the sweetest fruit Beku uses, which is why this jar reads higher on sugar.

Coconut milk

The creaminess

Real coconut milk rather than a coconut flavouring. It is also what makes this the only spread in the range that is not single-fruit.

Khandsari

The sweetener

Unrefined cane sugar, less processed than white sugar. Still sugar — 37.1g per 100g here is added sugar.

Lemon concentrate

For acidity

Balances the sweetness and helps the set. A food, not an acidity regulator by code number.

Fruit pectin

The setting agent

A gelling agent drawn from fruit. It is what lets a spread set without cooking the fruit to death.

What to look for in Fruit Spreads?

Fruit content is the number that matters. The legal minimum for jam is 45%, and 25% for strawberry, so anything sitting near the floor is mostly sugar.

Khandsari is still sugar, not a sugar-free option. It suits anyone cutting refined sugar, not anyone managing blood glucose.

Preservatives, colours and flavourings all have to appear in the ingredient list. If they are not in it, they are not in the jar.

Pectin is a fruit-derived gelling agent and belongs in a spread. Modified starch and gum are the shortcuts to look out for.

Total sugar varies a lot by fruit even at the same recipe. Pineapple carries far more of its own sugar than jamun or mulberry, so this jar reads higher than the rest of the range.
