Raisins, dried

Raisins are dried grapes. These figures describe dried raisins, excluding soft, ready-to-eat or partially hydrated products. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with 63g per 100g, all of which is sugar. Per 100g, they also provide 2.7g of fibre and 889µg of potassium, with an energy content of 1090 kJ.

Drying removes water from grapes, concentrating their sugars and energy into a smaller weight of fruit. This is worth noting when considering sugar or energy intake. Fibre helps support normal bowel function, while potassium contributes to normal nerve and muscle function. The full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
