Each #10 Can contains 6 ounces of Freeze Dried Strawberries.
Honeyville's Freeze Dried Strawberry Slices are produced in a process where moisture is removed from the frozen product using a very low temperature and a vacuum. Only about 3% moisture remains in the product at the time of packaging. The end product weight is reduced by over 90%, while the volume stays the same. This remarkable process concentrates the fresh product taste, natural color, and texture of fresh product in it's freeze dried state. When re-hydrated with water the product will maintain the texture and shape of fresh product, with no shrinking or shriveling.Freeze Dried and Dehydrated products are less expensive than wet pack food because you are not paying for all the water. Freeze Dried Strawberries can replace Fresh Prepared Strawberries at a rate of 10 to 1. That means that each can of Honeyville's Freeze Dried Strawberry is the equivalent of about 3.75 pounds of Fresh Strawberry. The taste is great, and the nutritional food value is excellent. Freeze drying provides natural and additive free fruits and vegetables to be stored effectively for long periods of time. Remember Honeyville's Freeze Dried and Dehydrated fruits are stable products with a long shelf life without additives or preservatives.
Our strawberries are naturally delicious, with no additives or sugar. Great for adding some flavor to your breakfast cereal, in recipes that call for fruit, mixed into yogurt, or for a healthy snack right out of the can.
Each # 10 Can of Freeze Dried Strawberries contains 6 ounces of product. 6 ounces of Freeze Dried Strawberries measures out to about 40 1/4 cup servings of dried berries. A #10 can measures 7 inches tall and is a little over 6 inches in diameter, or roughly the size of a large coffee can.
Shelf Life: Freeze Dried Strawberries may be stored in the sealed #10 can (with included oxygen absorber packet) for 10 to 15 years under ideal storage conditions (a cool, dry place).
Editor's notes: These are one of my favorites. If I don't take a can or two of the Freeze Dried Strawberries home every once in awhile my kids let me know about it. I really love the fact that my kids will eat these strawberries like they are candy. They are that good. We put dried strawberries on our cereal, dried strawberries in our fruit smoothies, and even eat dry strawberries right out of the can. I have a can at my desk that I snack on at the office. I get all the nutritional value of fresh strawberries in a convenient snack that I can keep at my desk for months. I tried doing that with fresh fruit and it wasn't pretty.
