Freeze-Dried Treats

Freeze Drying is a process that removes 99.9% of all water content. Fruit and vegetables will retain their shape, color, flavor and nutritional value. Unlike dehydration, which tends to alter the food during its drying process. Freeze-dried food when properly stored could potentially last up to 25 years. There is little water content in candy, by warming the candy, then applying a vacuum to it, changes the structure of the product and alters it from chewy or hard, to a light and crunchy texture. Fruit for example, will weigh far less when done. A half pound of strawberries will be reduced to about .5 ounces. Candy however, typically will not change in weight, but in size and structure. If you have never tried Freeze-Dried products before, you're missing out.
