Dried Japanese persimmon is peeled, dried persimmon fruit with chewy texture and concentrated sweetness, sold whole or in pieces as dried fruit.

Dried Japanese persimmon is ripe Japanese persimmon fruit that has been dried, often after peeling. The fruit becomes flattened or rounded and chewy, with a deep orange-brown colour and a concentrated sweet flavour; some methods develop a pale surface bloom.
It is sold whole or in pieces and eaten as a dried fruit. Texture and appearance vary with cultivar, ripeness, drying method, and storage, so not every product has the same softness or exterior.
