Dried Cherries

Dehydrated cherries are a delightful blend of sweetness and tartness. They are also an incredibly diverse food. Dry cherry is a delicious, healthy topping for ice cream, yogurt and oatmeal. Dried cherry is also a great addition to trial mix and homemade granola. Since fresh cherries have a relatively short shelf life, dried cherries are a better option. They are a good source of vitamin A, C and E and contain many antioxidants. Besides that they are also rich in iron, potassium and copper. Anthocyanins present in cherries give them their magnificently rich, dark colour. The enormous nutritional benefits dried cherries offer are a good enough reason to purchase them.
