Frequently Asked Questions
How is freeze dried candy made?
Freeze dried candy undergoes a unique and fascinating process. First, the candy is frozen to an extremely low temperature. Then, it's placed in a vacuum chamber where the pressure is reduced, and heat is applied. This causes the water content within the candy to sublimate, turning into a gas. The water vapor is then removed from the chamber, leaving behind perfectly freeze dried candy – crispy, lightweight, and packed with flavor.
What machine is used to make freeze dried candy?
The machine commonly used to make freeze dried candy is called a freeze dryer, or lyophilizer. This specialized equipment is designed to lower the pressure and temperature within a chamber, allowing for the sublimation of water from the candy while preserving its shape and flavor. Freeze dryers are essential in creating the unique texture and characteristics of freeze dried candy.
When was Freeze Dried Candy invented?
Freeze Dried Candy is a modern marvel, harnessing technology originally developed for NASA's Apollo missions in the 1960s. The freeze drying process, which inspired the creation of freeze dried candy, was invented during that era to create lightweight and long-lasting food for astronauts in space. Since then, it has been adapted and perfected to bring you the delightful freeze dried candy we know and love today.
