About Crunchies

How do we do it? First, we only work with farmers we know. Second, we pick the ripest fruit at the right time to make sure you have a mouthwatering burst of flavor in every bite. Lastly, we keep it simple. We never clutter your mind with in dustry jargon and your body with the bad stuff. We’re about keeping it real with ourselves and with you. PURE FRUIT AND VEGETABLES IN EVERY CRUNCH.

Our fruit and vegetables are harvested at the perfect ripeness, cleaned and then quickly frozen. The frozen fruit and vegetables undergo freeze drying with a special combination of temperature and pressure. The majority of the frozen water in the fruit and vegetables turns directly into water vapor, leaving the fruit and vegetables dry and crunchy. This unique process retains most of the color, flavor, and nutritional value of the fresh fruit. Taste the difference!

From sourcing fruit only from farmers we know and trust to ensuring you have the most flavor and crunch in every bite, we’re on a mission to deliver the best tasting and highest-quality snacks on the planet. Here’s how we’re changing the game.
