National Raisin Day

Join us in celebrating a naturally sweet foodie holiday this Wednesday, April 30th, National Raisin Day. Sometimes called Nature’s Candy, raisins have been around for as long as grapes. In fact, raisins can be traced back to as far as 2000 BC. The ancient Egyptians and Persians cultivated raisin grapes and dried them on the vine to use in food, medicine and possibly a form of currency. If you love raisins like we do, stop in this week to pick up Bianchini’s Jumbo Red Flame Raisins. Made from naturally sun-dried Flame red grapes, our Jumbo Red Flame Raisins are a remarkably sweet treat that pack a nutrient punch. They’re low in fat and sodium, high in natural fiber and a good source of iron and potassium. Raisins as a healthy choice for snacking or add them to your morning cereal or oatmeal for a touch of natural sweetness. Drop a few in your afternoon yogurt for a sweet pick-me-up. Or whip up a batch of oatmeal raisin cookies or raisin bread to share. Our Jumbo Flame Raisins are available in individual resealable tubs for easy enjoyment. Have a look at our raisin recipe collection for some extra sweet ideas.
