UNDERSTANDING RAISINS

Know the product.
Choose for your application.

Product & processing

Raisins are dried grapes whose colour, size and texture depend on variety and drying method. Natural seedless, golden, sultana, Flame and black raisin designations describe different product profiles. Treatment and surface oil also matter for ingredient declarations and handling.

Food industry applications

Raisins suit bread, panettone, biscuits, cereals, bars, trail mixes and confectionery. Smaller berries distribute through dough and cereal blends differently from larger fruit selected for visible snack mixes.

Raisins — commercial specification guide
SpecificationDetails
Natural seedless / goldenNatural seedless types are commonly sun-dried; golden types commonly use warm-air drying and SO₂ for colour retention.
Sultana / Flame / blackCompare grape type, colour and drying treatment rather than treating these names as a uniform specification.
Count reference per 100 gThe guide lists Jumbo below 80 berries, Medium 80–100 and Small/Midget above 100; confirm the origin-specific calibration.
Diameter referenceExtra Large above 9 mm; Large 8–9; Medium 7–8; Small 6–7; Midget below 6 mm. Count and diameter are separate systems.
Coating / treatmentConfirm added oil, SO₂ and the ingredient declaration for the lot.

Formats and pack sizes are reference options, subject to supplier confirmation. Agree the specification, tolerances and documentation for the offered lot before purchase.

Can I compare count per 100 g directly with millimetres?

Use the same sizing basis for both offers. Berry shape and moisture affect the relationship between count and diameter, so the two systems should not be presented as exact equivalents.
