What it is

Morello cherries are a variety of sour cherry, known for their deep red color and tart flavor. They are typically grown in Europe and North America and are often preserved or processed for use in food products.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use Morello cherries primarily for their intense flavor and color. They are commonly found in jams, jellies, baked goods, and desserts, adding a distinct fruity and tart profile.

Health notes

Morello cherries are a natural food ingredient and are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used in food. They contain antioxidants and vitamins, though specific health benefits are associated with a balanced diet. International bodies like EFSA have evaluated cherry components, but no specific regulatory limits are typically set for the whole fruit in this context. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects from typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Morello cherries are not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. They also do not contain gluten.
