What it is

Cherry flavored cranberries are dried cranberries that have been enhanced with artificial or natural cherry flavoring. The cranberries are typically sourced from cranberry bogs and undergo a drying process to remove moisture. Flavoring agents are then added to impart a cherry taste and aroma.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add cherry flavoring to cranberries to create a sweet and tart profile that appeals to consumers. This combination is often found in snack mixes, trail mixes, baked goods, and as a topping for cereals and yogurt.

Health notes

Cherry flavoring itself is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various flavoring substances. The health impact of cherry flavored cranberries is primarily related to the sugar content often added during processing, rather than the flavoring itself.

Allergen info

Cherry flavoring is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
