The Back Country Cuisine Freeze Dried Fruit Smoothies and Iced Mocha are nutritious as
well as delicious. Simply remove the cap and fill the pouch with cold water. Replace the cap, shake well and enjoy! You have a delicious gourmet
smoothie on the go. Perfect for kids, or a quick and easy snack for your
next adventure.
Smoothies are a combination of 100% freeze dried real fruit mixed
with ice-cream powder.
Iced Mocha is made with real chocolate, coffee and combined with soft-serve ice-cream powder to give you a tasty drink on the move.
In the freeze drying
process, crystals of frozen ice in the food are sublimed (evaporated) to
water vapour in a vacuum chamber. The result is a completely dry
product that does not shrink during the drying process. When prepared
for eating, the water quickly gets into the pores left by the ice
crystals to give a juicy, tender food product.
After packing, the food
is heat-sealed in foil pouches from which all the air has been removed
and replaced with nitrogen gas. This keeps the food safe and full of flavour for at least three years without the need for preservatives.
