Description
Ceylonese Mango, known as the “king of fruits,” is harvested and dried in its most natural form. HEIRLOOM Organic Mango Strips are made from organic, naturally grown mangoes on the tropical island of Sri Lanka. They contain no sweeteners, preservatives, or added sugars—just pure, dried mango strips packed with flavor and nutrients.
These mango strips retain their natural sweetness and can be enjoyed in various ways. Eat them as a refined sugar-free snack or rehydrate them for use in teas, smoothies, or baked goods. Simply soak the mango strips in hot water or fruit juice for 15–20 minutes to rehydrate. The chewy rehydrated bits can be added to cereal, or blended into salad dressings, sauces, and even homemade energy balls.
Other great uses include:
- Adding to muffins and bread
- Mixing with other dried fruits and nuts for a healthy snack
- Substituting refined sugar-based dried fruits in cookie recipes
- Using them in the second fermentation of homemade kombucha
These naturally sweet mango strips are harvested in a cottage industry initiative and free from chemicals, additives, or preservatives. They offer a rich, aromatic flavor that intensifies when rehydrated.
