What are IQF cherries?
IQF cherries are an ideal ingredient for food manufacturers requiring real pieces of fruit in their finished product – for instance in a pie, crumble, yoghurt or ice cream.
That’s because they are quick-frozen soon after harvesting, helping each cherry to retain its individual identity – locking in its fresh flavour and deep colour.
The IQF process also helps to keep the cherries’ vitamins and minerals in tact, lending excellent nutritional value to your end product.
