Production & Sourcing
To create sulfite-free dried strawberries, ripe and fresh strawberries are carefully cleaned and hulled. The fruit are then dehydrated using specialized methods such as air drying or low-temperature drying, without the addition of sulfites or any preservatives. This gentle dehydration process removes moisture from the fruit while preserving its natural color, flavor, and nutritional value.
