Real fruit, slowly dried
Menkar Dried Foods turns ripe fruit into crisp, colourful slices that keep their flavour for months, so you can enjoy nature's goodness all year round.

From fresh fruit to a pantry favourite
We started Menkar Dried Foods with a simple idea: good fruit shouldn't go to waste when it's in season. By drying it gently, we lock in the colour, sweetness and nutrients, with no added preservatives.
Every slice is packed by hand into resealable kraft pouches and gift boxes, ready for snacking, cooking, entertaining and giving.
See our flavoursFour careful steps
Choose ripe fruit
We select fruit at its peak, when the flavour and colour are at their best.
Wash and slice
Each fruit is washed and cut into even, thin slices so it dries consistently.
Dry slowly
The slices are dried gently over many hours until crisp, with nothing added.
Pack fresh
Once cool, they're sealed in resealable kraft pouches to keep them crisp.

- Snack straight from the pouch: at your desk, in the car or in a lunchbox.

- Top your breakfast: banana, apple and coconut over porridge, granola and yoghurt.
