Dried Cherries

Dried Cherries are cherries that have been dried to concentrate flavor and shelf life; they are commonly used in baking, trail mixes, salads and as a portable snack. Dried forms are prized for their sweet-tart taste and chewy texture, and are found in cuisines and baking traditions worldwide. Because water is removed, Dried Cherries are energy-dense at 333kcal per 100g and deliver concentrated sugars compared with fresh fruit. They contribute small amounts of fiber and micronutrients like iron and manganese but are not a significant source of protein or healthy fats. While drying concentrates natural sugars and calories, cherries still provide antioxidant polyphenols that may offer anti-inflammatory benefits; however, for everyday snacking a fresh or unsweetened frozen cherry will give similar nutrients with fewer calories and less concentrated sugar.
