> About the Freeze Drying Process
Freeze drying also known as Lyophilisation, is considered as the high-end process of dehydration. The fruit is placed in a refrigerated vacuum system. By lowering the temperature as low as 109°F in the tunnel, a sublimation reaction happens where up to 98% of the water evaporates. The process is slow and depending on the products takes between 12 and 30 hours. The freeze-dried fruit retains perfectly the color, aromatic flavor and nutritional values better than any other drying process.
