Freeze-Dried Hard Candy

To freeze-dry hard candy, place the pieces on a tray in a freeze dryer. The machine freezes the candy and removes moisture, resulting in a lighter, less dense version.

Yes, freeze-dried hard candy stays hard, but not in the traditional sense. It retains a crisp, brittle texture, transforming into a lighter, more fragile version of hard candy due to the freeze-drying process. 

Freeze-dried hard candy has the same sweet and tangy flavors as the original, but with a lighter, crispier, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Although freeze-dried candy is not necessarily healthier than regular candy, it can be a good option if eaten in moderation. Additionally, it is better for teeth health than traditional hard candy, as it's much less likely to get stuck in your teeth, making it a great option for those who have had dental work done, have braces, or want to avoid a visit to the dentist!
