Started in a Yorkshire kitchen.
Batch & Peel began with a simple frustration. The dehydrated fruit market in the uk was hard to source, poor quality & expense. So we made our own.
Real fruit. Sliced fresh Dried for 12+ hours
We're a small team. Every batch is small enough that we can taste it, look at it, and reject it if it's not right. Our process takes longer than it needs to, and that's the point.
We supply some of the UK's most discerning bars and restaurants, alongside candle makers, florists, food stylists and curious home bartenders.
Four steps. No shortcuts.
01
Sourced
We buy fruit from growers and importers we know. Mediterranean citrus picked at peak ripeness, English orchard fruit at the height of its season.
02
Sliced
Every wheel is sliced the same morning the fruit arrives. Consistent thickness so every slice dries evenly.
03
Dried
Dried for 12 hours+. The fruit keeps its colour, scent and natural sweetness. No syrup, no preservatives, nothing added
04
Packed
Sealed in matt, recyclable pouches for maximum freshness. Shipped within 24hrs of your order
Why we started Batch & Peel.
When we went looking for dehydrated cocktail fruit in the UK, the options were thin. Most wheels were imported, inconsistent, dull in colour and stale in scent. The few decent suppliers charged premium prices for small, slow-shipping pouches. For bartenders building a menu, or anyone who cares how a garnish looks and tastes, it didn't add up.
So we built the alternative. Batch & Peel is British-made dehydrated citrus and orchard fruit, sliced fresh, slow-dried, sold at a fair price. No syrups, no preservatives, no shortcuts. Properly dried fruit, packed for freshness, shipped within 24 hours. Trusted by bars, restaurants, hotels, candle makers, florists, food stylists and home bartenders across the UK.
