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 will 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 taste profile and nutritional values.

Enhancing porridges, yogurts, muesli, decorating desserts, or replacing fresh fruit? This freeze-dried fruit can do it all!

You can use freeze-dried fruit anywhere you would use fresh fruit. You can decorate and flavor porridge, yogurt, muesli with milk, or smoothies with it. It’s also very popular among pastry chefs, as it can be used simply and effectively to decorate desserts. The blueberries can be used whole or you can crumble them between your fingers – thanks to perfect drying, you’ll 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.
