Sun-Maid Raisins are what their name states: they're sun made! Raisins are produced from a sun-drying process of a variety of grapes. This sun-dried technique used to make raisins has existed for centuries, dating all the way back to ancient times. In fact, ancient Egyptian writings lend evidence that suggests raisins were consumed in ancient Egyptian cultures. Raisins have a flavor similar to grapes; however, the sun-drying process allows the sugar in the raisins to become much higher in concentration as compared to grapes, making the raisins taste much sweeter than their grape relatives. The majority of grapes used to make raisins in the U.S. are grown in sunny California because the area has an ideal climate and terrain growing grapes. Over four pounds of fresh grapes are needed to make a pound of fresh raisins.
