Premium Dried Currants for Baking and Everyday Recipes
Tiny, dark and intensely fruity currants for baking, breakfast bowls, salads, couscous and snack mixes.
SpiceBloom Dried Currants are made from Greek Corinth grapes that are sun-dried into small, dark dried fruit with a concentrated natural sweetness. Their compact size distributes easily through doughs, batters, cereals and savoury dishes.
The currants are practically seedless and lightly coated with vegetable oil to help reduce sticking. Use them in hot cross buns, fruit cakes, scones, biscuits, muffins, porridge, salads, rice dishes or homemade trail mix.

Use in couscous, rice pilaf, tagines, leafy salads, grain bowls and roasted vegetable dishes.
🍇 Made from Greek Corinth Grapes
Corinth grapes are small grapes traditionally used to produce dark dried currants. Sun-drying concentrates their sweetness and fruity flavour, while their small size makes them particularly useful for baking and recipes where evenly distributed dried fruit is preferred.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are currants the same as raisins?
No. These currants are made from small Corinth grapes and are generally smaller and more intensely flavoured than ordinary raisins.
Why is vegetable oil included?
A small amount of vegetable oil is used to help reduce sticking and keep the dried currants easier to separate and measure.
Do these currants contain seeds?
They are described as practically seedless. Very small traces of seed material may still naturally occur.
