FREEZE-DRIED ORANGE SLICES: citrus and colour for cocktails

FREEZE-DRIED ORANGE SLICES are orange cut into slices from which water has been removed by freeze-drying, preserving their citrus aroma, orange colour and flavour. The result is whole slices, light and crispy, with concentrated orange flavour and no moisture or preservatives, and great visual impact. Not dependent on season, they avoid waste and handling of fresh citrus and guarantee consistent finish year-round. Use as is, as garnish or decoration, or crushed into aromatic citrus powder. Being a hygroscopic product, keep dry and add to wet media just before service to preserve crispness.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is freeze-drying and why does it better preserve the flavour and colour of orange?
Freeze-drying removes water by sublimation (from ice directly to vapour, without passing through liquid) at low temperature. It is one of the methods that best preserves the citrus aroma, orange colour and flavour of orange, without preservatives and with a light, stable product year-round.
What advantage does freeze-drying have over traditional citrus drying?
Freeze-drying removes water by sublimation, without heat, which better preserves the colour, aroma and nutrients of orange and avoids the darkening and leathery texture of heat drying. The result is a crispy, striking and stable slice.
How should I store it once the package has been opened?
Being a freeze-dried product it is highly hygroscopic: it absorbs moisture rapidly. Store orange slices in a dry place at room temperature (15-25 °C), with the container tightly closed and, preferably, with a desiccant bag inside to maintain crispy texture as long as possible.
