Apricot Crispy 1 to 4 mm 250 g
Freeze-dried apricot granules, fine size, precision decoration
Sosa Apricot Crispy nuggets are freeze-dried granules made from apricot purée concentrate, with a crunchy texture and an intense, fresh, natural flavor. Their fine, consistent size of 1 to 4 mm makes them a precise decorative ingredient, suitable for detailed finishing in chocolate making, pastry, and confectionery. Brown-orange color variations may occur from one batch to another, without affecting the flavor or quality: this is a sign of authenticity, resulting from the absence of coloring.

Frequently asked questions
Why does the color of the pieces vary from one batch to another?
The brown-orange color variations are natural and related to the ripeness of the apricots used for the purée concentrate. They have no impact on the taste or quality: they are a sign of the authenticity of an ingredient without artificial coloring.
What is the difference compared with Sosa crispies sized 2–10 mm?
The 1–4 mm size of the crispy apricot is finer than that of the crispy raspberry or cherry in our range, which are sized at 2–10 mm. It is particularly suitable for precise decorations and thin coatings.
Can it be used in a cream, ganache, or entremets insert?
No, this product is not moisture-proof. When exposed to moisture, the granules soften quickly. Use it only for dry-surface decoration or incorporation into chocolate-based mixtures.
What storage temperature is recommended?
Between 15 and 20°C, a stricter requirement than for most Sosa freeze-dried products. This must be observed to preserve the crunchy texture, especially after opening, with a silica gel sachet.
