Raisins – Golden Jumbo

Golden Jumbo Raisins are premium-quality dried grapes known for their large size, vibrant golden color, and naturally sweet flavor. Made primarily from seedless green grapes—such as the Thompson Seedless variety—these raisins are carefully processed and sun-dried or mechanically dehydrated under controlled conditions to retain their plump texture and rich taste.

Key Features

  • Color: Distinct golden yellow to amber, maintained with a light treatment of sulfur dioxide (SO₂)

  • Size: “Jumbo” grade, meaning they are significantly larger than regular raisins

  • Taste & Texture: Sweet, fruity, and slightly tangy with a chewy, tender bite

  • Origin: Commonly sourced from countries like the USA (California), Turkey, India, and South Africa

Why Choose Golden Jumbo Raisins?

  • Visual Appeal: The golden hue makes them more attractive in baked goods, trail mixes, or as a garnish

  • Nutritional Value: A rich source of natural sugars, fiber, iron, potassium, and antioxidants

  • Versatile Usage: Ideal for cereals, granola bars, baked goods, salads, rice dishes (like biryani or pilaf), and healthy snacking

The roasted macadamias are to die for! They're clearly a premium product, not like the dry, stale ones you sometimes find. Worth every cent. Will definitely be ordering again.

Fast delivery to Cape Town! The nuts were securely packaged and incredibly fresh. The roasted and salted peanuts are addictive – better than any brand I've bought before.
