Dried organic pineapple pieces – a tropical energy booster

These dried organic pineapple pieces from Tanzania are among the most popular dried fruits, boasting a fruity, sun-sweet flavor and valuable vitamins and minerals. The fully ripened fruits are harvested by hand and gently dried at a maximum temperature of 41°C to ensure raw food quality.

Discovered by Christopher Columbus

The pineapple was first described in 1493 by Christopher Columbus on the Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, where he called it "Piña de Indes." Today, this tropical fruit is also cultivated in Africa and delights with its firm, light yellow flesh and sweet, aromatic flavor. It lends smoothies, desserts, and muesli a touch of pure vacation – best enjoyed on its own as a nutritious snack on the go.

Vitamin C, manganese, copper and potassium

Dried pineapple provides concentrated vitamin C, manganese, copper, and potassium. Vitamin C and copper contribute to a normal immune system and cell protection, while manganese supports energy metabolism. Potassium promotes normal muscle function and blood pressure, and the fiber supports digestion. Therefore, it is ideal for combating fatigue and providing sustained energy.

Fair organic farming in Tanzania

The pineapples are grown in small-scale mixed-crop farming operations alongside coffee and bananas, without artificial fertilizers or pesticides. Harvested fully ripe, the fruit is peeled, cut, and processed on-site using solar-powered drying systems. Fair prices above market levels ensure a secure income for families and create local jobs. From harvesting to refrigerated transport to Europe, 100% raw food quality is guaranteed.
