Strawberry Raffaello Balls with Freeze-Dried Strawberry Powder

Small, elegant treats with a creamy coconut texture and vibrant strawberry flavour. These Strawberry Raffaello Balls show how freeze-dried fruit powder can transform a classic confectionery concept into a premium, eye-catching product.

Freeze-dried strawberry powder brings intense natural colour, authentic fruit flavour, and a unique sensory experience. Thanks to its low moisture content and easy dosage, it is especially suitable for confectionery, bakery, chocolate, fillings, creams, coatings, and premium snack applications.
