What it is

Chocolate raisins are dried grapes (raisins) coated in a chocolate-flavored confectionery shell. The raisins are typically plumped and sweetened before being enrobed in a mixture of sugar, cocoa, and other ingredients to create the chocolate coating.

Why it's used

Chocolate raisins are primarily used as a sweet snack or as an ingredient in trail mixes, baked goods, and candy. The chocolate coating provides a sweet flavor and appealing texture, while the raisin offers a chewy contrast.

Health notes

Chocolate raisins are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. The primary health considerations relate to their sugar and calorie content, which are typical of confectionery snacks. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many individual ingredients used in chocolate and candy coatings, but not 'chocolate raisins' as a composite product. High intake of sugary snacks may contribute to health issues.

Allergen info

Chocolate raisins are not a major allergen. However, some chocolate coatings may contain milk or soy lecithin, which are major allergens. Check product labels for specific allergen information. Gluten is not typically present.
