Dried fruit can be dried naturally or with the help of a machine. When drying fruit, its aromas, sugar content and other things are concentrated in the fruit and results, among other things, in the fruit getting a clearer taste. In industrial production, it is common for the fruits to be freeze-dried.

Dried fruit contains a higher concentration of sugar than fresh fruit because the water is gone. For the same reason, they also contain a greater concentration of vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre. Dried fruit is therefore not useless, but you should be careful because it is easy to get excess sugar and calorie intake.
Many dried fruits are coated with sugar or syrup before drying to make the fruits sweeter and more attractive. Due to harmful health effects, it is very important to read the nutrients on the package to avoid added sugar in dried fruit.
