Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
About freeze-dried food
What is freeze-drying?
Freeze-drying (lyophilisation) freezes food to around −40°C, then removes the ice as vapour under vacuum. Because the food is never cooked, it keeps its shape, colour, nutrients and flavour — it just loses the water (and about 90% of its weight).
What's the difference between freeze-dried and dehydrated?
Dehydrating uses heat, which cooks the food, darkens it, and leaves it chewy with roughly 60–70% of water removed. Freeze-drying removes ~99% of water without heat, so the food is light and crunchy, rehydrates quickly, and retains far more of its original nutrition and taste.
How long does freeze-dried fruit last?
Every pack is stamped with a best-before date two years from packing. Best-before is about quality, not safety — stored sealed in a cool, dry, dark place, freeze-dried food can stay good for 10 years or more. We print the conservative figure and let your pantry prove the rest. Once opened, reseal tightly in an airtight container and enjoy within a few weeks for maximum crunch.
Do I need to rehydrate it?
No. Everything we make is delicious straight from the bag. If a recipe calls for soft fruit, a few minutes in water brings it back.
Is anything added?
No. Every Outback Bites product is 100% Australian-grown produce — no preservatives, no added sugar, no additives.
Why does my pack sometimes weigh more than the label says?
The weight on the label is a minimum. We typically add a few grams extra to every pack (over and above the packaging and the oxygen absorber) — so you'll never get less than you paid for, and usually a little more.
