Our WA made dehydrated fruit powder is exactly what it sounds like - fruit that's been dried and then ground into a fine powder. It's a concentrated source of fruit flavour and nutrients, with a long shelf life and a variety of uses.
Benefits:
- Intense Fruit Flavour: Dehydrated fruit powder boasts a concentrated fruit flavour, often several times stronger than the fresh fruit itself. A little goes a long way in adding a fruity punch to various recipes.
- Nutrient Rich: While some heat-sensitive vitamins like vitamin C might be slightly reduced during drying, fruit powders retain a good amount of the original fruit's nutrients like fibre, minerals, and antioxidants.
- Long Shelf Life: Dehydrated fruit powders have a much longer shelf life (typically around 1-2 years) compared to fresh fruit, making them a convenient and less perishable way to enjoy your favourite fruits.
- Lightweight and Portable: Due to their water removal, fruit powders are lightweight and compact, making them perfect for travel, camping, or adding to emergency food kits.
- Versatile Uses: Dehydrated fruit powder has a wide range of culinary and non-culinary applications.
