This versatile fruit can be added
directly to almost any baked
application, is available all year
round and comes in a wide
range of products, including
soft and moist; diced; double
diced; glycerated; juice-infused;
and reduced sugar. Its excellent
process tolerance makes dried
cranberries ideal for both sweet
and savoury products, such

Cranberries have had an explosive
growth in high-quality baked goods
and being added to reformulated
existing product lines such as
cereals and health bars. There
is still room for much more
innovation.
Quality chocolate is another area
that cranberries have been adding
value. Sweetened dried cranberries
not only offer the well-documented
health benefits of cranberries, they
are also perceived as sophisticated
and easy to use, tasty and colourful.
Cranberries are one of the few
ingredients for chocolate that hits
the mark on all fronts.
