Freeze Dried Pineapple

Pineapple has a strong taste profile with its high sugar and organic acid content. Its fibrous structure remains pronounced after drying and gives the product a characteristic chew resistance.

Freeze-drying preserves pineapple's tropical aroma and bright yellow colour. The ring form is cut and processed after the core is removed; the central cavity creates a recognisable visual signature. The dice form is prepared in standard size for blend applications.

Ring form is used in snacking and hospitality applications; dice form in muesli, bars and breakfast blends; powder in beverage, dairy and confectionery applications. As pineapple's natural acidity can cause curdling in milk-based systems, pH balance must be observed in the recipe.

Because of the high sugar content the product tends to soften and stick as temperature rises.
