Orchard-fresh and ripe apples are sorted, washed, peeled, cored, and air-dried. Then, various cleaning, sorting, and food safety steps are conducted prior to cutting or milling into the desired cut size. Silva’s production facility is an FSSC22000 certified operation. Our dried apples are available either with or without added sulfites for color retention, depending on your application needs. Steam sterilization can be added for microbiological reduction or to introduce a validated kill step. This ingredient category is available as all-natural, as well as non-GMO verified. The fresh raw material is grown mainly throughout Chile, China, or the United States.
