Freeze-Dried Strawberry Nutrition Facts per 100 g and per Serving
Per 100 g, 100% freeze-dried strawberries carry 340 kcal, 21 g of fibre and 624 mg of vitamin C, with 52 g of the fruit’s own sugar and 0 g added. A 10 g serving is 35 kcal on a US label and carries more vitamin C than 100 g of fresh orange. The ingredient line is one word, Strawberries, so every number on the panel comes from the fruit.
This page is the label data for brands, importers and private-label teams: values per 100 g and per serving, how they compare with fresh strawberries, how the US Nutrition Facts panel and the EU nutrition declaration are built from them, which claims the numbers support and the diet questions buyers ask most. It is nutrition data for labelling, not medical advice.

Typical values for 100% freeze-dried strawberries; natural variation by origin, season and ripeness applies. Lot nutrition panel available for label artwork.
Pick the column that matches your product. A 10 g serving is the typical cereal, yogurt or smoothie-bowl topping; a 25 g pouch is the classic ready-to-eat snack, at about 85 kcal for the whole bag of fruit. That makes a 25 g pouch of 100% strawberries an easy fit for an under-100-calorie snack line, with no added sugar and more than a day’s vitamin C in the bag.
Freeze-dried vs fresh strawberries per 100 g
Freeze-drying removes the water and leaves the rest of the berry. That is why every number per 100 g rises about ten-fold, and why the same fruit looks modest per serving.
| Per 100 g | Fresh strawberries | Freeze-dried strawberries |
|---|---|---|
| Water | About 91% | ≤5% |
| Energy | 32 kcal | 340 kcal |
| Fibre | 2 g | 21 g |
| Sugars | 4.9 g | 52 g |
| Vitamin C | 59 mg | 624 mg |
| Potassium | 153 mg | 1,620 mg |
Ten grams of freeze-dried strawberries is the fruit of about 100–120 g of fresh berries. Fresh values are the standard reference figures for raw strawberries in USDA FoodData Central; the freeze-dried values sit right where the fresh fruit lands once its water is removed. That match is the practical proof that freeze-drying keeps the fruit’s nutrients in place: nothing is cooked out, and nothing is added. How the conversion works is in freeze-dried strawberry conversion ratio.
Natural sugar vs added sugar
52 g of sugar per 100 g sounds high; on the label it is 0 g added sugars. The sugar is the strawberry’s own fructose, glucose and sucrose, concentrated with everything else when the water leaves. Per serving, 10 g carries about 5 g of sugar, roughly what a large handful of fresh strawberries carries.
What this means for your pack:
- US label: “Total Sugars 5 g, Includes 0 g Added Sugars” per 10 g. Added sugars only appear when sugar, syrup or juice concentrate is added during processing.
- EU label: sugars are declared as “of which sugars”; with no sugar or sweetening ingredient added, the pack can carry no added sugars, with the statement that the product contains naturally occurring sugars.
- Sweetened, juice-infused or chocolate-coated strawberries carry different numbers and cannot use these values or claims.
Fibre, vitamin C and potassium
These three numbers are what a brand puts on the front of the pack.
Fibre: 21 g per 100 g. It comes from the fruit’s cell walls and seeds, and freeze-drying keeps it all. In a cereal, bar or snack mix, strawberries add fibre with no extra ingredient on the line.
Vitamin C: 624 mg per 100 g. The fruit never cooks: it is frozen and dried under vacuum at low temperature, so the vitamin C of fresh strawberries comes through concentrated. A 10 g serving carries 62 mg, more than 100 g of fresh orange at about 53 mg, and about 70% of the US daily value. For a brand, that is vitamin C from real fruit, with no synthetic ascorbic acid on the ingredient line. Vitamin C keeps degrading slowly after drying, driven by moisture, light and oxygen, which is what water activity ≤0.30, opaque foil and a desiccant keep out. For a retail label, declare a value the pack still holds at the end of its shelf life; FruitBuys runs an accelerated shelf-life study on your final pack in a private-label programme.
Potassium: 1,620 mg per 100 g, about 81% of the EU reference intake and 34% of the US daily value per 100 g. Potassium gives a sports bar, recovery snack or active cereal a mineral story from the same single ingredient.
Building a US Nutrition Facts panel
US labels declare per serving, using the reference amount for the product category. For dried fruit, the reference amount is 40 g; your declared serving can be a household measure close to it, or the whole pouch for a single-serve pack. FDA rounding rules then turn the raw values into the printed panel:
| Line | 10 g raw value | Printed (US rounding) | % DV |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calories | 34 kcal | 35 | |
| Total fat | 0.3 g | 0 g | 0% |
| Sodium | 1 mg | 0 mg | 0% |
| Total carbohydrate | 8.1 g | 8 g | 3% |
| Dietary fiber | 2.1 g | 2 g | 8% |
| Total sugars / added | 5.2 g / 0 g | 5 g / 0 g | 0% added |
| Protein | 0.7 g | 1 g | |
| Vitamin C | 62 mg | 62 mg | 70% |
| Potassium | 162 mg | 160 mg | 4% |
Calories under 50 round to the nearest 5, which is why 34 kcal prints as 35. Your regulatory team sets the final serving and runs the rounding on the lot panel; these values let your designer build the layout on day one.
EU nutrition declaration
EU labels declare per 100 g, in kJ and kcal, with fibre counted at 2 kcal per gram and carbohydrate declared without fibre. From the same fruit:
| Per 100 g | EU declaration |
|---|---|
| Energy | 1,425 kJ / 340 kcal |
| Fat | 3.2 g |
| of which saturates | 0.2 g |
| Carbohydrate | 60 g |
| of which sugars | 52 g |
| Fibre | 21 g |
| Protein | 7.1 g |
| Salt | 0.03 g |
The headline energy matches on both labels, about 340 kcal per 100 g, because US total carbohydrate includes fibre while the EU counts fibre separately at its own energy value. One lot panel serves both markets. The carbohydrate line is where artwork mistakes happen: copy the US figure of 81 g onto an EU pack and the panel is wrong.
Which claims do the numbers support?
| Claim | EU threshold | US threshold | Freeze-dried strawberry |
|---|---|---|---|
| High in fibre | ≥6 g per 100 g | ≥20% DV per reference amount | Clears both |
| High in vitamin C | ≥30% of the reference intake per 100 g | ≥20% DV per reference amount | Clears both by a wide margin |
| High in potassium | ≥30% of the reference intake per 100 g | ≥20% DV per reference amount | Clears EU; US: good source (10–19% DV per 40 g) |
| No added sugar(s) | No sugar or sweetening ingredient added | No sugar added in processing | Qualifies |
Claims are made on your finished product, not on the ingredient. In a cereal or bar where strawberries are 10% of the mix, the product carries a tenth of these values, so run the calculation on your formula. The red colour from anthocyanins sells as colour, flavour and “100% fruit”; antioxidant health claims stay off the pack. Label data and artwork support for your own brand are in private-label freeze-dried strawberries.

Diet questions: gluten-free, vegan, keto, low-FODMAP
| Diet | Answer for 100% freeze-dried strawberries |
|---|---|
| Gluten-free | Naturally gluten-free: a single fruit ingredient, no cereal. For a “gluten-free” label claim, FruitBuys can arrange a gluten test on your lot at an accredited laboratory |
| Vegan and plant-based | Yes: 100% fruit, no animal-derived ingredients or processing aids |
| Halal | Halal certification available on request |
| Paleo and whole-food | Fits: one whole-fruit ingredient, nothing added |
| Keto | Not a keto ingredient: 81 g carbohydrate per 100 g. A 10 g topping (about 6 g net carbohydrate) can fit a low-carb product’s budget as a flavour and colour accent |
| Low-FODMAP | Strawberries are a low-FODMAP fruit in normal servings; dried fruit concentrates sugars, so keep servings small. The pack is not certified low-FODMAP |
Two diet questions shoppers ask also deserve a straight answer on a brand’s FAQ page. Are freeze-dried strawberries healthy? They are whole strawberries with only the water removed: fibre, vitamin C and potassium from the fruit, nothing added. Serving size matters, because 100 g of freeze-dried fruit is the fruit of more than a kilo of fresh berries. Can they cause constipation? Fibre works with water; dried fruit eaten in large amounts without enough fluid can feel heavy for some people. Neither answer is medical advice. Products for infants and young children have their own rules, covered in freeze-dried strawberries for baby food.
From typical values to a lot panel
Use the typical values in this article to build the layout. When your artwork is ready, FruitBuys draws a sample from your trial or first commercial lot and arranges the nutrition panel at an independent ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory, in US or EU format. The final numbers drop into the same layout, so the label is printed once and matches what is in the bag. For powder, the values per 100 g are close to these; the powder specification is in freeze-dried strawberry powder specification.
Get the nutrition data for your label
Send your market, product and serving size. FruitBuys returns the specification with nutrition per 100 g, a draft panel in your market’s format and the plan for a lot panel, so your packaging team can start artwork before the first container is booked. Product details are on the freeze-dried strawberries page; the full buying guide is freeze-dried strawberries in bulk.

FAQ
Are freeze-dried strawberries healthy?
They are 100% strawberries with only the water removed: 21 g fibre, 624 mg vitamin C and 1,620 mg potassium per 100 g, with no added sugar. Because the fruit is concentrated, a serving is small: 10 g is 35 kcal on a US label.
Do freeze-dried strawberries have added sugar?
No. The 52 g of sugar per 100 g is the fruit’s own, concentrated when the water is removed; the US label reads 0 g added sugars.
Are freeze-dried strawberries keto?
Not as a main ingredient: they carry 81 g of carbohydrate per 100 g. A 10 g topping, about 6 g of net carbohydrate, can fit a low-carb product as an accent.
Are freeze-dried strawberries low FODMAP?
Strawberries are a low-FODMAP fruit in normal servings. Dried fruit concentrates sugars, so keep servings small; the product is not certified low-FODMAP.
Are freeze-dried strawberries gluten free?
Yes, naturally: the only ingredient is strawberries. A lot gluten test can be arranged for a “gluten-free” label claim.
Can freeze-dried fruit cause constipation?
Fibre works with water. Large amounts of dried fruit without enough fluid can feel heavy for some people; keep servings moderate and drink enough. This is general information, not medical advice.
