How to Store Dehydrated Fruit Garnishes for Maximum Freshness
One of the biggest perks of dehydrated fruit is its long shelf life. But — if you don’t store it right, it can lose flavor and crispness. Here’s how to keep yours fresh for months.
Best Storage Practices
-
Keep airtight – Use the resealable bag or a glass jar.
-
Avoid moisture – Humidity is the enemy; never leave them out uncovered.
-
Cool & dark place – Pantry or cupboard is better than the fridge.
How Long Do They Last?
-
Oranges & lemons: 12+ months if sealed.
-
Limes & apples: 10–12 months.
-
Pineapples & mixed packs: around 12 months.
Do They Go Bad?
Not really — they just lose color and crispness if exposed to air. Properly stored, they’re safe long after fresh fruit would’ve spoiled.
