Craisins are actually dried cranberries with sugar added to make them sweet. Raisins are just dried grapes, with no added sweeteners. Craisins are a dried cranberry brand created by Ocean Spray, known for growing cranberries.

Raisins and cranberries

They are really sweet, but okay in recipes.

I think they’re big in America. I’ve tried them and they’re really nice.

Yup. Dried cranberries.. I don’t like them lol..

Craisins are dried cranberries. I’ve tried them a couple of times and found them to be sickly sweet, I didn’t enjoy them at all. Meant to be lovely added to cooking tho

They caught my eye a few years back in a supermarket. Browsing and saw craisins and went hmm I wonder? lol

Wow, I learned something new today didn’t know they were dried cranberries, I’ve been wanting to make a recipe with craisins in it for a while, now I know what they are I can lol. Thanks for asking this question.

Yes definitely dried cranberries. Took me a while to realise when I was searching in the shops for ingredients for a recipe
