Premium Raisins 🇮🇳

Are these golden raisins or black raisins?

These are premium golden kishmish — made from Thompson Seedless green grapes, naturally sun-dried without sulphur dioxide treatment (the chemical commonly used to make commercial raisins appear bright yellow). Our raisins are a natural amber colour with a soft texture and honey-like sweetness.

Are these raisins treated with sulphur dioxide?

No — our raisins are sulphur-free, which is important if you are sensitive to sulphites or asthmatic. Most commercial golden raisins use SO₂ to preserve bright colour, which can trigger allergic reactions. Naturally sun-dried raisins are slightly darker but completely safe for everyone.

Why should I soak raisins in water overnight?

Soaked raisins are easier to digest, release more iron, and the soak water becomes a mild tonic. Drinking this water first thing in the morning is a traditional Ayurvedic remedy for iron deficiency, constipation and liver support. The soaked raisins are eaten with the water.

How much sugar do these raisins contain?

Raisins are naturally high in sugar — approximately 59g of natural fructose and glucose per 100g. No sugar is added; it is all from the original grape concentrated during drying. A 30g daily serving (about 2 tablespoons) provides 18g of natural sugar, roughly the same as one small apple.

Can diabetics eat these raisins?

In small portions, yes. Despite the sugar content, raisins have a medium glycaemic index (around 64) and also contain fibre that slows sugar absorption. A serving of 10–15 raisins (about 10g) is generally considered safe for diabetics. Always consult your doctor for your specific situation.
