With freeze dried candies getting more and more popular in recent years, you may wonder how freeze dried candy is different from regular candy. In this blog post, we’re going to answer that question and recommend some soft candies that taste even better when freeze dried.
How Does Freeze Dried Candy Work?
The freeze drying process isn’t nearly as complicated as you might think. In fact, it’s exactly as it sounds: freezing and drying! Completely frozen candy is placed under a special vacuum that removes nearly all water and other liquid solvents from the candy. The result is a flavour-blasted, airy, and crunchy treat! It’s a brand-new way to experience all your favourite types of candy, from Starbursts to taffy.
