Description
New! Our Peruvian sun-dried Pineapple pieces come from a farming co-operative in the Andes region of Peru. The high altitude conditions make these fruits especially aromatic, sweet and nutritious, and the care with which they are selected, washed, dried, and packed ensures all their delicious flavour and valuable nutrients remain intact. We think you might agree this is some of the best dried pineapple you have ever tried!
These gently dried fruits are processed in Cajamarca, over the Andean mountain range, at more than 3000 meters above sea level, where air is dry and atmospheric pressure is low, generating conditions for the fruit to dehydrate without needing high temperatures during the process.
When drying fruits, the quality of the air is critical. Air carries the humidity away from the fruit, acting as a sponge; air absorbs humidity and moves it away from the fruit. When air is dry, the absorption capacity at a given temperature is higher. On the opposite, if the air is humid, we need to increase temperatures to maintain absorption capacity.
Atmospheric pressure is also critical; pressure is the force that water must overcome when evaporating. At high altitudes atmospheric pressure is lower, hence water requires less energy to move from liquid to gas. When dehydrating fruits, this means less energy (temperature) is required to convert water to vapour.
At Villa Andina, because of processing our fruits in Cajamarca, we are able to use low temperatures thanks to clean, dry air and low atmospheric pressure, making the texture, flavour and aroma of our natural gently dried fruits unique.

A shadow of its former self, but still tasty
"This is not the same as the excellent Dried Pineapple I had previously. Is it sundried still? Apparently, excess heat can destroy the anti-inflammatory benefits of this fruit. It might be useful if Raw Living could say how much Bromelain is in this product?"
really tasty
"this is delicious. really sweet and chewy . Not at all dried up like some"
Delicious
"This is lovely, sweet and chewy in just the right amounts. It tastes fresh and vibrant even though it’s dried."
I'm Obsessed!
"Absolutely love this dried pineapple. It's rich tasting and the bag lasts me a while. Love to Nibble on it as a snack with some nuts and I also chop it up and add it to my overnight oats and chia puddings with gojis so they plump up nicely."
Best dried pineapple
"Lovely consistency, not completely dried out like other dried fruits, creating a lovely tangy taste and texture in the mouth"
