Helpful Tips:
• Use the Victorio Apple and Potato Peeler (VKP1010 or VKP1011) for
consistent thickness of apples for dehydrating.
• When dehydrating fruits or fruit leathers, spray the drying trays or fruit
leather trays with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
• For more information regarding specific fruit and vegetable preparation
and estimated drying times, visit the USDA’s website, nchfp.uga.edu.
• To make sure all dried fruit pieces have the same moisture content you
can condition the fruit before storage. See p. 7 for more information.
• Cookie cutters can be used to cut out fun shapes in fruit leather for
kids. Roll cut shapes in plastic wrap for storage.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM SOLUTION
Items on the top trays dry too
slowly
Rotate one tray from the bottom
of the stack to the top during each
hour of drying time. This will even
out the dryness of the food on
each tray
Fruit leather sticks to trays and
cannot be cleanly peeled off.
The trays were not sprayed with a
cooking spray beforehand.
The fruit leather is not fully dry.
Whole fruit doesn’t seem to be
drying.
You must ‘check’ the skins of
whole fruit before putting them in
the dehydrator. See p. 5 for more
information.
