Freeze-dried Skittles are all the rage with the Harvest Right crowd and we definitely think they’re worth a try.
There’s no real reason to preserve Skittles for long-term storage, but freeze drying them makes them crunchy instead of chewy. The flavor is even more intense, and you don’t have that stick-to-your-teeth sensation. To freeze dry Skittles, just place them in a single layer on a Harvest Right freeze dryer tray and process in your home freeze dryer. The inside filling will expand, cracking the candy shell and doubling the size of the candy. Sometimes they come out in really odd shapes, which just ups the fun factor.
Freeze-dried Skittles have a powerful tangy flavor that pairs nicely with salted peanuts. Freeze-dried mini marshmallows have a creamy flavor that cuts through the citrus of the Skittles, so a half-and-half combination is extra tasty.

So I have to buy a freeze dryer from you? Any other way to do this?
Harvest Right is the only maker of Home Freeze Dryers. You can buy directly from them, or, one of their resellers.
Wish there were a way to make monthly payments to buy. Several thousand dollars just isn’t in my budget.
Hi Kelly, there is a great interest free layaway program that would be a perfect fit for you.
