Methods for preparing such fabricated fruit pieces are provided comrising the steps of (A) forming a low moisture gelled center having high levels of humectant to form sticky gelled core pieces; (B) optionally coating the low moisture gelled center with dried particulate fruit to form a gelled center having a dried fruit particulate base coat; and (C) applying a final thin film coating comprising a sweetened aqueous dispersion of a film forming hydrophilic colloid.
