What is dried watermelon?

Dried watermelon is the dried form of fresh watermelon processed with special systems. Watermelon contains about 90-95% water. Therefore, drying yields about 1 kg of dried watermelon from 15-20 kg of watermelon. During drying the water is removed and the essence remains, so the nutrient values, especially protein, carbohydrate and mineral ratios, increase significantly.
We offer dried watermelon in various size options for wholesale.
