How can Arico Cookies have such a long shelf life (9 months) if they are all natural and do not contain preservatives?
Arico Cookies and healthy snacks are formulated and baked for low moisture and water activity levels (available water) to inhibit microbial growth. Such is the case with organic dried fruits; they are preserved by lowering the moisture and water activity to extend the shelf life. Moreover, we use a multi-layer packaging for our Cookies that enhances the moisture barrier and keeps out UV light and oxygen.
