Freeze-dried lychees - 200g
Freeze-dried lychees, 200g
Freeze-dried lychee
Frankly, freeze-dried lychee is the whole fruit - and nothing else. We start with a lychee picked at full ripeness in Vietnam, freeze it, then remove its water cold (the fresh fruit contains nearly 80%) without ever heating it. The result: a small crunchy piece that keeps the floral taste and colour of the fruit, with no added sugar or artificial flavouring. In practice, it is a snack to nibble as it is, a fruit "sweet" that I have no qualms about leaving on the table. And if you want to explore the other flavours, we offer a whole range of freeze-dried fruits .
We are pleased to offer you freeze-dried lychees in small pieces in a resealable 200g bag, which were first harvested at ripeness in Vietnam, to preserve their characteristic floral aroma and tender texture.
After the success of our other freeze-dried fruits, we wanted to offer you other varieties of tropical fruit. We were won over by the intense fruit flavour this partner offers us; they are the best we have tasted so far! A real sweet with a concentrated fruit taste.
The fruits are grown in a climate suited to their growth (exotic fruits) and above all, they are picked at full ripeness just before being freeze-dried. That is the guarantee of a quality product. Our supplier is not certified organic but the growing is, and the fruits are certified "pesticide residue-free". Freeze-dried, the lychees keep their natural taste, with no added sugar or artificial flavourings.
Discover the unique taste of lychees in a crunchy version! An indulgent alternative to sweets for children - and adults alike.
The freeze-drying technique, which appeared in France in the early 20th century, dries foods by sublimation: the product is first deep-frozen, before its water is evaporated under vacuum. In this way, the water passes directly from a solid to a gaseous state without going through the liquid state! Because there is no heat involved, freeze-drying preserves the volume, appearance and taste of the food.
For my part, with Aurélie, we slip a handful into our morning granolas or into a water kefir at the weekend - the floral note of lychee makes its little impression. There you go, that's just one idea among others. If you are hesitating between our varieties, I have detailed each one in our complete guide to freeze-dried fruits.
❄️ How to eat freeze-dried lychees?
As their taste is particularly concentrated, you can add them in small quantities to your plant-based recipes. They will also add intense, fruity aromas to your homemade kefir and kombucha drinks ! You can also enjoy them as they are as a snack, or add them to mueslis, granolas or fruit salads. They are also perfect to add to smoothies for an exotic note, or as an infusion after rehydrating for a mild, fruity taste.❄️ Also find in this video the principles of freeze-drying explained by Miguel Barthelery:
In concrete terms, what does freeze-dried lychee contain? Here is what can be said about it, without overselling anything - the figures for the nutritional composition are in the "Practical info" tab.
1. Naturally occurring polyphenols
Lychee contains polyphenols, including proanthocyanidins. No health claim is approved for these compounds: they are simply part of the fruit's natural profile.
2. A concentrated snack, no added sugar
No added sugar, no flavouring: only the sugar naturally present in the lychee, concentrated by freeze-drying (60 g of sugars and 321 kcal per 100 g, see the table). So it is an indulgent snack (and not a low-calorie product) - perfect for a break, a hike or the children's snack, in place of industrial sweets.
3. Composition
A single ingredient: 100% lychee. The figures for the nutritional composition (energy, fat, sugars, protein, salt) are in the table in the "Practical info" tab.

Does freeze-dried lychee contain added sugar?
No. Our freeze-dried lychees are made from 100% lychee, with no added sugar or artificial flavouring. The intensely sweet taste comes solely from the sugars naturally present in the fruit, concentrated by the removal of water. It is a concentrated fruit, and therefore full of flavour - to be enjoyed as a treat, not as a low-calorie product.
How to eat freeze-dried lychees?
You can crunch them as they are as a snack, add them to a muesli, a granola or a fruit salad, slip them into a smoothie for an exotic note, or let them infuse in a homemade water kefir or kombucha. Rehydrated for a few minutes, they regain a softer texture. As their taste is very concentrated, a small amount is enough.
What is the difference between freeze-drying and classic drying?
Unlike hot drying, freeze-drying removes the water cold, by sublimation, without cooking. That is what distinguishes a freeze-dried fruit from a classic dried fruit: it keeps its volume, colour, taste and crunch.
Is freeze-dried lychee organic?
Our Vietnamese supplier is not certified organic, but the growing is, and the fruits are certified "pesticide residue-free". We have chosen transparency: a quality tropical terroir, fruits picked at ripeness, and a partner committed to international standards (ISO 22000, HACCP, IFS).
How to store a bag of freeze-dried lychee?
Keep the bag at room temperature, away from light and heat. The 200 g format is resealable: remember to reseal it well after opening to preserve the crunch, as freeze-dried fruit easily reabsorbs moisture from the air.
