DRUM-DRIED STRAWBERRY
Add the sweet taste of strawberry to beverages and more!

MOMENCE, ILLINOIS… (February 5, 2008) - Drum-dried Strawberry from Van Drunen Farms (VDF) is available for use in a variety of food and beverage products.

This delicious red berry loved by many for its sweet flavor and versatility is quite possibly the most prized fruit grown in the Western Hemisphere. From its unique design (it is the only fruit with its seeds on the outside) to its versatility, one bite of this juicy berry is all it takes to fall in love!

Drum-dried Strawberry from Van Drunen Farms can be easily incorporated into many food products. The drum-drying process maintains much of the berry’s color, flavor and nutritional value in an easily dispersible form, and at an economical price.

Strawberry pairs well with other flavors like chocolate and vanilla, and it is perfect for dairy products - yogurt, smoothies, kefirs, whipped toppings and ice cream. Add it to bakery products such as breakfast bars and pastries or use in confection fillings and sweet sauces. It is ideal in beverages, too, such as teas, juices and sports drinks.

Van Drunen Farms offers conventional and organic Drum-dried Strawberry in a flake or powder format; customization is available.
