Objective: This study aims to analyze the biochemical components of sweets made with widely consumed fruits from Amazon region Pará, a focus on assessing their nutritional and economic viability. Theoretical Framework: The practice preserving through preparation is tradition that helps minimize waste preserves part benefits fruits. Research indicates aspects such as pH, soluble solids content proximal composition are essential assess quality ensure they meet established legal standards. Method: To produced, following analyses were performed: (TSS), total titratable acidity (ATT), moisture content, ash, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates energy value (VET). Results Discussion: average values ​​are within standards stipulated by Brazilian legislation for fruit jams regarding pH (guava jam: 4.36; acerola 3.73; passion 3.33 pineapple 4.57), 53.00 °Brix; 72.00 76.00 °Brix 60.00 °Brix) 1.44 g 100 g-1; 1.26 1.37 g-1 1.13 g-1). levels obtained produced close those Food Composition Table – TACO, well reported in literature. As some characteristics analyzed presented similarities found literature, showing potential production. Implications: practical theoretical implications this research discussed since products developed viable present adequate nutrient consumer emerge excellent alternative sources development local economy diversify production chain, increasing its shelf life. Originality/Value: contributes literature highlighting conservation importance consumption. relevance evidenced application relatively simple technology, but significant impact life product.
