Freeze-dried Strawberry Powder

FREEZE-DRIED STRAWBERRY POWDER

Delicious and nutritious, red strawberries are easily one of the most popular berry fruits in the world. Originally native to Europe, strawberries are nowadays widely cultivated as an important commercial crop in many temperate regions all over the world.

Freeze-dried strawberries are rich in Vitamin C and dietary fibre.

Strawberries are a rich source of vitamin C, antioxidants, and other nutrients that offer significant health benefits. While freeze-drying may result in the loss of some nutrients, it will still preserve many of the vitamins and minerals that make strawberries an excellent addition to a healthy diet.

What Are Freeze-Dried Fruits?

Freeze-dried fruits are made using a process in which frozen fruits are placed in a vacuum under very low pressures. Low pressure causes the frozen water in fruits to evaporate directly from ice to vapour. This process, also known as sublimation, removes water much more efficiently than regular drying. In fact, freeze-drying typically reduces the fruit’s water content by about 99%.

Because freeze-dried fruit has been dehydrated thoroughly, it has a crunchier texture than traditional dried fruit. This makes freeze-dried fruit a delicious addition to oatmeals, trail mix bags, cocktails, and acai bowls. Because of its crunchy texture and sweet taste, freeze-dried fruit can also be enjoyed by itself as a snack.
