Dried Fruit

Currants have an intense, tangy and sweet flavour which adds texture and sweetness to both sweet and savoury dishes. Packed with essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, currants are the smallest and on the whole the sweetest of the dried grape family.

The high sugar content in dried fruits makes them suitable energy boosters. Dried currants are rich in biotin, pantothenic acid, niacin, vitamin C and vitamin A

Raisins are a type of grape that has been naturally dried to produce these tasty treats. Grapes darken as they dry, which gives raisins their dark brown color. These plump raisins are a really delicious addition to baking recipes or as a simple snack. We love them added to homemade muesli mixes for their natural sweetness and chewy texture. They also go really well in creamy curries and vibrant salads.

Despite their small size, raisins are packed with energy and rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals.

Sultanas are large green grapes that have been dried to a rich golden-brown. They’re usually larger than raisins or currants and are among the most popular dried sweet fruit due to their size, succulence and sweetness.

They are a good source of iron, potassium and selenium and also contain vitamin A and some vitamin B. They are also rich in fiber and are beneficial for high blood pressure, fluid retention, constipation and anemia.

Used either as quick nutritional snacks, or getting a fruity burst in savoury dishes.
