Description

Freeze-dried Cloudburst is a viral candy trend that transforms the classic, waxy chew of a standard Cloudburst into a light, airy, and intensely crunchy snack. By using a specialized machine to extract all moisture, the candy expands into miniature, puffed-up “space cubes” that melt in your mouth and will not stick to your teeth.

Texture and Taste Transformation

From Chew to Crunch: The dense, waxy, and stubborn chew of the original candy completely vanishes. It turns into a brittle, crispy puff that shatters upon your first bite.
Flavor Explosion: Sublimation locks in and heavily concentrates the real fruit flavor oils and citric acid. Flavors like Strawberry, Cherry, Orange, and Lemon taste significantly sharper and sweeter than standard counterparts.
Braces-Friendly: Because the moisture is entirely removed, the candy becomes completely water-soluble. It will not stick to teeth, fillings, or dental brackets.

Weight

When packaging freeze-dried fruits and candies, fluid ounces measure volume, not weight, which often confuses people because freeze-drying removes up to 90% of a food's water content. This means an identical deli container size will hold drastically different net weights depending on how much the food expands or contracts during the freeze-drying process.

Standard Deli Container Sizes & Average Net Weights
Deli containers are universally measured in fluid ounces (volumetric space). Because freeze-dried foods are highly porous and light, their actual scale weight is a fraction of the container’s volume.

• 8 oz Container (Half-Pint / Small)
o Estimated Net Weight: 1.5 to 2.5 ounces of candy; 0.5 to 1 ounce of fruit.

• 16 oz Container (Pint / Medium)
o Estimated Net Weight: 3.5 to 5 ounces of candy; 1.5 to 2.5 ounces of fruit.

• 32 oz Container (Quart / Large)
o Estimated Net Weight: 7 to 10 ounces of candy; 3 to 5 ounces of fruit.
