Ever wondered how those delicious Dried Fruit snacks manage to pack so much flavor into such a small package? It’s all about the science of drying – a process that preserves the nutritional value of fruits while enhancing their flavor and texture. 

The drying process involves removing moisture from the fruit, thereby hindering the growth of microorganisms that cause spoilage. However, it’s not just about preventing decay, drying also concentrates the natural sugar and flavor present in the fruit.

So how does it work? Well, it all starts with the very "humble" Dehydrator. Here at ReelFruit, we rely on state-of-the-art dehydrators to gently remove moisture from our Fruit snacks while still preserving their nutritional elements. Unlike other preservation methods that rely on high heat or chemical additives, dehydration allows us to retain the vitamins, minerals, and fiber that make Fruits an essential part of a healthy diet.


It’s also not just about preservation, drying also unlocks new dimensions of flavor and texture that are simply irresistible. Take our Coconut Flakes, for example. Through the drying process, we’re able to intensify the natural sweetness of the Coconut, resulting in a crispy, crunchy snack that’s perfect for munching on anytime, anywhere.
