Description
Reinette apples are typically brown and originate from France. With a coarse, aromatic and bittersweet flavour they tend to be favoured for cooking. In Portugal they are amongst the varieties cultivated in the Oeste region – the varieties we use for this snack are Reinette Grise du Canada and Reinette blanche du Canada. The fruit we use is all produced by local fruit growers – in case you’re interested you can check who produced the fruit in every package.
Production
Our snacks are easy to make, but the process takes time.
We start by slicing the fruit and then we put it inside greenhouses, specially built to protect the fruit, while it dries in the sun. This process besides being more environmentally friendly than drying the fruit in ovens, also allows for the fruit to retain the same flavour was when it was fresh – something quite unique to our fruit snacks.
As the fruit dries the flavour intensifies. That is why the fruit is so sweet, despite the fact that we add no sugar.
The fruit takes about 3 days to dry – depending on the wheather. After it is ready it is then packaged.
All of our snacks are a source of vitamins and minerals and are high in fiber. For more detailed information please check the nutrition declaration below.
