Montmorency sour cherry
A very special variety is the Montmorency sour cherry, which is grown in Traverse City, Michigan. The composition of its ingredients is unique. A balanced ratio makes it a real power fruit.
It has been found that eating them can have healing effects. The anthocyanins they contain are valuable antioxidants. They are not only responsible for the dark red color, but can also help to reduce pain and inflammation. The melatonin it contains helps to improve the natural sleep rhythm.
Montmorency sour cherries are one of the few fruits that taste as good as fresh when dried. An optimum moisture content combined with sweetness and genuine fruit flavor is the result of highly developed drying technology. An appealing appearance and texture and the absence of colorants are just some of the other advantages. Montmorency sour cherries are often used as an ingredient in muesli and yoghurt and are a popular snack between meals.
Łutówka sour cherry
One of the best known and most widespread types of sour cherry is the Polish Łutówka, which is also considered the most suitable variety for further processing. The fruits are large and dark with dark red juice. The flesh is medium firm and sour. They are therefore perfect as a dried variety for muesli, in high-quality mixes and for use in baked goods, where their dark red color makes them an eye-catcher.
Sour cherries are among the fruits with the highest levels of antioxidants. Cherries also contain numerous minerals and vitamins.
The dried and sweetened sour cherries come from Poland. With 15% of global sour cherry production, Poland is the world's third largest source of sour cherries and the EU's most important sour cherry producer. Our sour cherries are dried and processed directly on site in a gentle process.
