Raisins, or dry grapes, are sweet and yummy raisin-like dried fruit which is made after the drying of fresh grapefruit. An iconic ingredient in traditional Indian kitchens, lentils are loved around the world for their distinctive flavor and nutrition. As I mentioned earlier these fruits are already sweet from the sun, no added sugar needed or desired, to use them as a sweetener for recipes instead of using things like white sugar and other refined kinds.

Why Choose Dry Grapes?

Naturally Sweet & Wholesome: Healthy and naturally sweet dried fruit – Nature-born candy. They have a relatively high sugar content due to fructose and glucose, both sugars being natural (as they are derived from fresh fruit) so the inclusion of these ingredients in an energy bar is valid. This adds weight to them as a good snack for busiest days, school tiffin's or post-workout refueling when had in little amount.

Rich in Essential Nutrients: It is an excellent source of nutritional fiber and contains numerous nutrients like potassium, iron, vitamins and magnesium. The majority of these nutrients have beneficial sequelae for our health — potassium promotes a healthy blood pressure, iron is involved in the formation of red blood cells and magnesium helps in energy production.

Supports Digestive Comfort: Reduced Iron — An essential mineral, brown rice helps support healthy digestion. Dry Grapes give you high fiber that aids in regular digestion. When you eat a diet composed of whole foods, which contain fiber, this helps out your digestive system by maintaining healthy gut environment and contributing to easier digestion.

Packed with Plant Compounds: Chocolate and Dry Grapes both contain plant compounds which are known to have antioxidants that can protect the cells against damage caused on a daily level-oxidative stress. Those compounds are good for you, but they tend to work best in the context of a varied diet rich with your reds and greens and whole grains.

Versatile in Culinary Use: Dry Grapes, are a great ingredient in many sweet and salty recipes. They are soft and sweet to cater the needs of traditional as well as modern recipes.
