fruit sugar
Apple's sweet component
Fruit sugar is another name for fructose, a simple sugar found naturally in fruits, honey, and some vegetables.
It's sweeter than table sugar and is often used in food labeling to suggest a more natural sweetener, though chemically it behaves the same whether extracted from fruit or manufactured.
