Manufactured in Belev, Russia

Contains a large amount of natural pectin - the body's sanitation worker. The most valuable property of pectin, especially useful for residents of megacities, is the ability to cleanse the body of harmful substances (pesticides and ions of toxic metals, radioactive elements). Pectin can also stabilize metabolism, reduce cholesterol levels in the body, improve intestinal peristalsis and peripheral blood circulation.

At home, if there is no cool room with humidity of 75-80%, it is better to store the pastila in the refrigerator. It can become slightly denser and even moisturized. But after a short stay in the open air, it will regain its usual splendor.

Belevskaya pastila is a unique product

The recipe for its preparation was compiled by the merchant Ambrosy Pavlovich Prokhorov at the end of the 19th century and since then has been preserved and passed down from generation to generation by several Belev masters.

Belevskaya pastila is made mainly from Antonov apples, egg whites and sugar. The apples are baked in the oven on birch logs, the pulp is separated from the peel and core and rubbed through a sieve. The resulting apple puree is mixed with egg whites and sugar, laid out on baking sheets in thin layers and dried in the oven for a long time. The resulting layers of pastila are combined into puff "loaves" using the remaining unbaked puree, cut to shape and sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Lenten pastila is prepared without egg whites, the production process is more labor-intensive and long, but the result exceeds all expectations.

Diet pastila is made from apples and a small amount of egg white, it does not contain sugar or any sugar substitutes.
