Freeze-Dried Candy Process

How to Make Freeze-Dried Space Candy

1. In freeze-drying, food is frozen and placed in a strong vacuum.
2. The water in the food then sublimates — that is, it turns straight from ice into vapor, just like what would happen in space
3. Whether the candy is sour or sweet, freeze-dried candy will have its flavor, color compounds, and aromas preserved, while its texture is completely transformed.
4. The freeze-drying process results in an enhanced and concentrated taste profile and a new and improved crunch of the candy. Some products will become light and airy and others will morph from chewy to brittle. Plus, the freeze-dried preservation method gives candies a faster rehydration time, which makes many of them melt in your mouth.
5. Crispy, chewy, tender delicious candy is made!
