You should expect to receive your refund within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper, however, in many cases you will receive a refund more quickly. This time period includes the transit time for us to receive your return from the shipper (5 to 10 business days), the time it takes us to process your return once we receive it (3 to 5 business days), and the time it takes your bank to process our refund request (5 to 10 business days).

Where to you ship to?
We currently ship within New Zealand and Australia. You can get in touch with us and place an enquiry.
ARE FREEZE-DRIED FRUITS THE SAME AS DEHYDRATED FRUITS?
No. Dehydrated fruits are typically sun-dried and preserved using sulphur dioxide. Other dehydrated fruits are soaked in sugar syrups or concentrated deionized apple juice* to increase the dry solids and thus preserve the fruit.
*Deionised apple juice is apple juice with all the flavour and colour chemically stripped to create a concentrated 72 Brix (72% sugar) fruit juice.
DOES FREEZE DRYING PRESERVE THE GOODNESS OF THE FRUIT?
The loss of nutrients throughout the process is minimum. Freeze drying is acknowledged as the best form of drying for the preservation of antioxidants. The actual levels of antioxidants in freeze-dried fruit are very high due to the level of concentration, making it a good addition to a healthy and balanced diet.
HOW MUCH FRESH FRUIT IS IN 10G OF FREEZE DRIED STRAWBERRIES?
10g of freeze-dried strawberry is made from 100g of fresh fruit. This is the same for Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackcurrants and Blackberries.
