What the crunch?
The secret to how we pack so much goodness and crunch into our healthy snacks
Our freeze-drying adventure
From Swiss fields to crunchy snacks
Ever wonder how supermarket foods travel so far? Many of them start their journey long before they're ready, and are treated with chemicals to ripen.
At froodies club we believe in letting nature do its thing. We source only the ripest fruits and veggies from local Swiss farms, and use a special freeze-drying process to lock in all their amazing flavor and goodness.
Let's get frosty: the freeze-drying journey
Step 1
Harvest & prep
Our froodies' journey begins in the fields, where our produce is picked at their peak of ripeness. We then give them a gentle wash and slice them into bite-sized pieces, just like you would in your own kitchen.
Step 2
Ultra cold freeze
Next we give them a shock freeze, locking in all their great flavors and nutrients, before going into a special vacuum process.
step 3
Sublimation
As the pressure drops, the ice transforms directly into vapor - also known as sublimation.
They are then gently heated to remove any remaining water content, leaving behind perfectly crunchy, delicious, preserved fruits and veggies that are bursting with taste and goodness.
Did you know???
Because freeze-drying removes most of the water, our froodies are packed with their original vitamins, fibers & other nutrients. In fact, a small handful of our freeze-dried raspberries has the same amount of vitamins as a whole bowl of fresh ones!
That means you can get your daily dose of goodness in a fun and convenient way.
Why freeze-dry vs other methods?
You might be wondering, “Why not simply dry the fruit using heat?”
Well, it's simple. High temperatures can cause the loss of essential vitamins and minerals. Moreover, some companies resort to using sulfur as a preservative, which is quite unpleasant.
In contrast, freeze-drying is a gentle process that preserves all the beneficial elements of fruits and vegetables without any harmful additives.
And our froodies wouldn't have it any other way!
Keep the crunch
To keep your froodies crunchy and delicious, store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
