Freeze-dried cherries are a great choice for adding some natural sweetness and flavour to your meals. They can be rehydrated and added to pies, cakes, and other baked goods, or they can be enjoyed as a snack right out of the bag.

Not only are freeze-dried cherries tasty, they are also packed with nutrients. Cherries are a good source of fibre, vitamin C, and a range of other essential vitamins and minerals.
