Indulge in the delightful combination of sweet, chewy raisins enrobed in rich chocolate. These classic treats are perfect for snacking, baking inclusions, or as a sweet finish to any meal. Proper storage ensures their optimal flavor and texture for maximum enjoyment.

Storage Time

Up to 6 months in a cool, dry pantry; 1-2 weeks in the refrigerator (texture may change).

Temperature

Ideal pantry storage is between 15-20°C (60-68°F). Avoid direct sunlight and heat.

Freezing

Yes, chocolate-covered raisins can be frozen to extend their shelf life. For best results, place them in an airtight container or freezer bag, ensuring minimal air exposure. To thaw, transfer the frozen treats to the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Freezing may slightly alter the texture of the chocolate coating, potentially causing some blooming (a white, powdery appearance), but they remain safe to eat. Avoid refreezing once thawed.

Signs of Spoilage

Visible mold growth on the chocolate or raisins.
A rancid or off smell emanating from the confection.
Significant changes in texture, such as the chocolate becoming excessively crumbly or the raisins becoming hard and dry.
