The total sugar content was similar for air-dried or
freeze-dried samples, while, as expected, a significant increase
in sugar content (≈80–82 g of glucose/100 g d.w. for discs
and ≈81–86 g of glucose/100 g d.w. for dices) was
observed in samples with previous dry infusions when compared
with the fresh sweet cherry (TS=66.4 g of glucose/100
g d.w.).
