Annies Fruit Friends Nutrition Facts | Snack Pouch Guide

One Annie’s Fruit Friends pouch has 45–50 calories, 0g fat, and 7–10g sugars from fruit with no added sugars.

Nutrition Facts For Annie’s Fruit Friends Pouches

Each pouch weighs 90 g and lands in a tight range: 45 calories for apple, apple carrot, or apple spinach, and 50 calories for apple banana. Labels show 0 g fat, 0 mg sodium, and 0 g added sugars. Total sugars sit between 7 g and 10 g, depending on the fruit blend. The base is organic apple puree with flavor-boosting add-ins like banana, carrot, or spinach, plus vitamin C to help keep color fresh. These details match the brand’s product pages for the apple, apple banana, apple carrot, and apple spinach flavors.

Here’s a quick side-by-side so you can pick a pouch that fits your plan. Values below are per 1 pouch (90 g) and are pulled from the brand’s nutrition panels.

Flavor	Calories (per 90 g)	Total Sugars
Apple	45	~9 g
Apple Banana	50	10 g
Apple Carrot	45	8 g
Apple Spinach	45	7 g

Fiber differs a bit by blend. Apple spinach often lists about 2 g of fiber, while apple or carrot sits near 1–2 g per pouch, with protein at 0 g across the board and potassium in the ~115–170 mg range on some flavors. These numbers come straight from the product pages for apple spinach, apple carrot, apple banana, and the plain apple pouch (all 90 g servings).

Calories And Sugar In Fruit Friends Pouches

If you’re counting, the calorie difference between flavors is tiny. Apple banana runs about 50 calories, while the others sit at 45. That’s a sip of juice worth of spread. For sugars, the range is 7–10 g per pouch, and the label shows 0 g added sugars. The sweetness comes from fruit only, which lines up with the FDA’s definition of added sugars on the Nutrition Facts label. Added sugars are those put in during processing, not the sugars that live in fruit.

If you want a frame of reference from a neutral database, unsweetened applesauce (the base idea here) usually sits near 60 calories per ½ cup, with sugars that come from fruit. You can scan a standard entry in MyFoodData’s applesauce table for a feel of that baseline. Pouch sizes differ, but the pattern is similar.

Ingredients And What They Mean

The core recipe uses organic apple puree, then adds another fruit or a veggie puree for flavor and color. Classic apple strawberry uses apple plus strawberry and a touch of purple carrot juice concentrate for color, protected with ascorbic acid. Apple banana leans on banana puree for a bump in sweetness and calories. The veggie blends add spinach or carrot puree for variety while keeping sugars modest. You’ll see all of this on the brand pages and retailer listings that reproduce the same label and ingredient deck.

Labels show 0 g added sugars, and that lines up with how the FDA treats sugars on the panel. Fruit puree provides natural sugars, while added sugars are listed only when a producer adds sweeteners during processing. The FDA’s label page spells out those rules in plain language for shoppers.

Portion Size And Who These Pouches Fit

One 90 g pouch is sized for a quick bite at school, on a drive, or after practice. Kids who like a sweet taste without a candy crash may enjoy the fruit-only profile. Adults use them for convenience when a spoon isn’t handy. If you’re balancing carbs at breakfast, a pouch plus a nut butter sandwich can round out a fast meal. If you’re watching sugars, lean toward apple spinach or apple carrot, which sit at the lower end of the sugar range based on the label data.

How Fruit Friends Compare To Plain Applesauce

Plain unsweetened applesauce in a bowl runs about 60 calories per ½ cup with 0 g added sugars, and a similar vitamin and mineral profile unless a brand adds vitamin C. These pouches are smaller by weight (90 g vs. a common 122 g reference for ½ cup), so the 45–50 calories make sense for the portion. If your goal is the very lowest sugars, a 90 g pouch of apple spinach sits at 7 g, while a larger ½ cup bowl of standard unsweetened applesauce lists higher sugars simply because the serving is bigger. The USDA and school meal documents give clear snapshots of these baselines.

Label Skills: Reading What Matters On These Pouches

Start at serving size. One pouch equals one serving. Move to calories, then scan total sugars and added sugars. Seeing 0 g added sugars tells you the sweetness comes from fruit, not cane or corn sweeteners. Check fiber. The spinach blend often lists around 2 g per pouch, which can help you meet your daily fiber target across the day. For parents tracking vitamin C, several flavors list 25 mg per pouch, shown as 30% DV on the label. All of these points are present on flavor pages for apple spinach, apple carrot, and apple banana.

Common Questions, Clear Answers

Are There Any Allergens Listed?

The pouches are fruit and veggie purees with ascorbic acid and color from juices. Retailers flag them as gluten free. Always check your box and pouch for the brand’s current allergen statements.

What About Vitamins And Minerals?

Vitamin C appears across multiple flavors at about 25 mg (30% DV). Potassium varies by blend, commonly 115–170 mg per pouch on the panels that list it. Iron shows low single-digit %DV values on some flavors. These figures come from the brand’s own labels for the veggie and banana blends.

Do These Pouches Count Toward Fruit?

The base is fruit puree, and school meal resources treat applesauce as fruit in crediting frameworks. That doesn’t make the pouch a full serving of fruit under every program, but it shows how applesauce fits into menus. Check your local program rules if you’re buying for a daycare or school setting.

Picking A Flavor For Your Needs

If you want the lightest sugars, pick apple spinach or apple carrot. If you want a sweeter taste that still avoids added sugars, apple banana will please most kids. If familiarity wins, classic apple keeps it simple at 45 calories. Since all flavors list 0 g fat and 0 mg sodium, your call mostly comes down to total sugars, fiber, and taste.

Some shoppers like to map snacks to times of day. A lower-sugar pouch pairs well with breakfast when cereals or toast already bring carbs. The higher-sugar banana pouch can fit after a game when kids tend to want a sweeter snack. If you’re packing a hike bag, consider two pouches and a protein add-on so the snack sticks a bit longer.
