Freeze-drying candy is a fun way to create a crispy, airy treat that’s both unique and delicious! Here’s a quick guide on How To Freeze Dry Candy:
Select Your Candy
Choose candies with a higher sugar content, like gummies or marshmallows. These hold up well during freeze-drying. 🍬
Prepping the Candy
Cut large candies into smaller pieces to ensure even freeze-drying. Arrange them in a single layer on the freeze-drying trays. 🍭
Freeze
Place the trays in your freeze-dryer. Set the machine to freeze at a temperature of around -40°F (-40°C) or lower. This process can take 24-48 hours depending on the candy’s size and type.❄️
Drying
After freezing, the machine will create a vacuum to remove moisture from the candy. This process turns the ice directly into vapor, leaving a light and crispy treat. 🌬️
Storage
Once done, store the freeze-dried candy in an airtight container to maintain its crispy texture. Enjoy your crunchy, shelf-stable candy! 🥳
