I loved the real freeze-dried ice cream, which is light sweet and taste like real ice cream. This is no comparison to it.
Shiitake mushrooms are one of the most recognized and widely used functional fungi in the global food industry. Prized not only for their umami-rich flavor, but also for their nutritional and medicinal properties, shiitake are becoming increasingly essential across applications—from healthy ready meals to functional nutrition and emergency rations.
Freeze-drying is a process where freshly harvested shiitake mushrooms are rapidly frozen and then gently dehydrated under vacuum, removing water while preserving cellular integrity. This results in:
Authentic mushroom flavor and aroma
High nutrient retention (Vitamin D, polysaccharides, fiber)
Crispy, lightweight texture
Natural brown color and gill structure
Instant rehydration with hot water
Freeze Dried Shiitake is not just a dried mushroom—it's a high-performance ingredient ready for global food systems.
At Merry Time, we produce and export premium-quality Freeze Dried Shiitake Mushrooms, designed to meet the high standards of food manufacturers, ingredient distributors, and brand developers worldwide. Our products combine traditional agricultural wisdom with modern food technology to create a shelf-stable, rehydratable, and fully traceable mushroom solution.
