Vilgain Freeze-Dried Blueberries  - fragrant, tasty blueberries dried by freezing

Enjoy (almost) fresh blueberries even out of season. Freeze-dried blueberries taste like they’ve just ripened all year round. They’ll elevate any sweet dish or dessert not only with their flavor, but also with a load of nutrients that are preserved thanks to freeze-drying (lyophilization).

Rapid freezing preserves aroma and flavor

How does the freeze-drying process actually work? Blueberries or other fruit (even vegetables) are exposed to deep freezing and then slowly dried in a vacuum, which completely removes the water. Through this process, the fruit gains its characteristic lightness and retains its color, aroma, and flavor. Blueberries are valued for their distinctive flavor profile and nutritional values.

Enhance porridge, yogurt, muesli, decorate desserts, or substitute for fresh fruit? This freeze-dried fruit can do it all!

You can use freeze-dried fruit anywhere you’d use fresh fruit. You can decorate and flavor your porridge, yogurt, muesli with milk, or smoothie with it. It’s also very popular among pastry chefs, as it can be used to decorate desserts simply and effectively. Blueberries can be used whole or crumbled between your fingers—thanks to perfect drying, you can create a fine blueberry powder. Freeze-dried fruit has another perfect feature—once you soak it in water, it swells back up and regains its original size, texture, and will be indistinguishable from classic fresh fruit.
