Questions about Seedless raisins

How do you stop raisins sinking to the bottom of a cake?

Toss them in a spoonful of the recipe’s flour before folding them into the batter. If they’re very dry, soak them first, then drain and pat them dry so they don’t add excess liquid.

Should you soak raisins before baking?

Soak dry, tough raisins in warm water or tea for about 10–15 minutes, then drain and dry them well. This plumps them up for fruit cake or hot cross buns; soft raisins can go straight into the mixture.

How should you store seedless raisins?

Keep them in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry cupboard, away from sunlight. Once opened, seal the pack promptly; refrigerate them in a closed container if your kitchen is hot or humid.

What can you use instead of raisins in a recipe?

Chopped dried dates, apricots or prunes work in cakes, porridge and fruit scones. They’re often softer or larger than raisins, so chop them to a similar size and expect a different, usually deeper, flavour.

Are raisins and sultanas the same thing?

Both are dried grapes, but the names commonly refer to different grape types and drying methods: sultanas are often lighter and softer, while raisins are often darker and more robust in flavour. The terms can overlap between regions and product labels.

Can dogs eat raisins?

No. Raisins can cause severe poisoning in dogs, and even a small amount may be dangerous; keep them out of reach and contact a vet urgently if your dog eats any.

What dishes are seedless raisins used in?

They’re a familiar addition to fruit cake, hot cross buns, bread-and-butter pudding and porridge. For savoury cooking, try them in spiced rice or couscous, where their sweetness balances warming spices and savoury ingredients.
