ADD A TASTE OF THE TROPICS WITH PINEAPPLE

MOMENCE, ILLINOIS… (January 8, 2007)…Make it easy to add a taste of the tropics with Freeze-dried Pineapple from Van Drunen Farms (VDF).

Make it easy to add a taste of the tropics with Freeze-dried Pineapple from Van Drunen Farms (VDF).

Adopted by the Spanish as a symbol of hospitality, the ever-popular pineapple is a sweet delight for many. This flavorful fruit adds tropical flare and freshness to a variety of foods. Pineapple is great with savory dishes, pairing especially well with pork, as well as poultry, seafood, and sweet-and-sour dishes. Fresh pineapple, however is quite perishable. Thus, using pineapple in the freeze-dried form can be the answer to your product quandary.

VDF Freeze-dried Pineapple is the perfect solution. Freeze-drying retains the color, shape and sweet flavor of the pineapple, making it a convenient, shelf-stable option to fresh. In addition to savory applications, desserts like pies, cakes, muffins and breads, along with trail mixes, compotes, and salsas all are ideal applications for Freeze-dried Pineapple.

VDF Freeze-dried Pineapple, certified organic and conventional, is available in powder, diced, and chunk forms.

VDF also offers a wide variety of other freeze-dried fruits, vegetables, herbs and variety items.

Van Drunen Farms is a family-owned company, located in the fertile farmland of the Midwest. VDF is a supplier of certified organic and conventional fruits, vegetables, herbs and specialty products for the food industry. Customization is a specialty.
