DRIED APRICOT
Dried apricots are a sweet and chewy fruit that are perfect for snacking. We produce them from fresh rape apricot. We have 2 methods for drying apricot, Machine dried and sun dried.
Dried apricot has a long shelf-life and can be stored for extended periods of time. Dried apricots are also more concentrated in terms of flavor and sweetness than their fresh counterparts, making them perfect for a snack or baking. They are also much more convenient to transport and store since they are lightweight and take up minimal space. They can be eaten alone as a snack, added to salads, stirred into yogurt, or used in baking.

One of the factors that affect the price of dried apricots is their size. The size of dried apricots is measured by the number of fruits per kilogram, and the international standard for this is shown in the table below. The smaller the number, the larger the size of the dried apricots. For example, a size of 1 means that there is only one dried apricot per kilogram, while a size of 180 means that there are 180 dried apricots per kilogram. The size of dried apricots can vary depending on the variety, growing conditions, harvesting time, and drying methods. Generally, larger sizes are more expensive than smaller sizes, but the taste of jumbo and small size are the same.
