As a sweetener, the value of raisins cannot be underestimated. Their sweetness, derived from sunshine and nature, is incomparable to artificially synthesized sweeteners.

Its charm lies not only in its deliciousness and naturalness but also in its diverse applications: In baking, when we incorporate raisins into the dough of bread or cakes, after high-temperature baking, the raisins will release a rich aroma, making the entire baked goods emit an enticing scent. When cooking desserts, the addition of raisins can make the broth more mellow and sweet, bringing layers of surprises to the taste buds. Its sweetness is natural and gentle, not giving people an excessive feeling of greasiness, but rather blending well with other ingredients to create a harmonious and wonderful taste.

As a snack, raisins are even more charming. They are small and compact, easy to carry, whether it's for a quick energy boost during busy work or to comfort a weary heart during a long journey, raisins are an excellent choice.
