Fruit

Freeze-dried fruit has a unique taste and texture that sets it apart from fresh or dehydrated fruits. The freeze-drying process removes moisture while preserving much of the fruit's flavor, nutrients, and color. As a result, freeze-dried fruit often has an intense, concentrated flavor that is both sweet and slightly tart, depending on the fruit. The texture is light and crunchy, making it enjoyable to eat as a snack or ingredient. Freeze-dried fruit is popular as a healthy snack option. Its lightweight and shelf-stable nature make it ideal for on-the-go consumption. It is often added to breakfast cereals and granola mixes, providing a burst of flavor and texture. Freeze-dried fruit can be incorporated into baked goods like cookies, muffins, and breads, adding moisture and flavor without affecting the overall texture. It’s commonly used in smoothies and as a topping for yogurts, enhancing both taste and visual appeal.
