I did not realize how difficult it will be to find dried cranberries without sugar or sweeteners added? Help?

This listing is for a one pound box of unsweetened (no added sugar or sweetener) cranberries. The dried cranberries are completely natural with no artificial color or additives and are gluten free.

There was no nutritional information included in the package I received. They were only dehydrated cranberries, no sugar or anything else added. Somewhat paper-y in texture so I always rehydrate them. My guess is very, very, little natural sugar, carbs, or nutrients. I think I did find one internet guess-timate for calorie and carb content. I don't remember the answer, but it was very low in both.

I don't have a recipe for you but if you follow the instructions on the jar, you shouldn't have any problems. I made mango jam without any sugar at all. However, I did add enough Splenda, prior to cooking, to sweeten the jam to my taste. Just remember, that the whole jar makes 22 pints. So, determine how many pints your mixture will make and use the appropriate percentage of the jar of pectin, i.e. 11 pints will take half of the jar, 5 pints about one quarter of the jar. This approach worked very well for my jam. You must not over cook the mixture. This will cause the pectin to be less effective in jelling. If your jelly does not set up hard enough, you may have over cooked the mixture or you need to increase the amount of pectin that you are using. Experiment!! Good luck!

Yes, the cranberries are unsweetened. No added oil. They are dried. We goggled "How to rehydrate dried cranberries." A Live-strong article was very good.. b

"Dried blueberries sweetened with sugar; touch of sunflower oil added to prevent clumping".......from the description, touch of sunflower oil, not touch of sugar.....Yes they have a lot of sugar!

Only 6 grams of sugar and I would guess most of it is natural from the cranberries and that there is little "added" sugar.

There is none that I saw when I got mine. It just came in a clear bag. They have nothing added like most dried cranberries. It's like drying them yourself. Most have added oils and sugar. These do not and so they are kind of tart but they taste great in the cookies I made that were all natural with no flour.

The advantage I see to this recipe for jam made with Clear Jel is that it is lower in sugar than normal jam. Of course that also means that it is going to spoil fast. But it is still going to be goopy rather than jam-like or jelly-like. If low sugar is what you are after, try no-sugar pectin. You can usually find it at supermarkets, but it is also here on Amazon.com. Do a search on "no sugar pectin" and you will come up with a number of good products.

Dried raspberries are usually air dried until most of the moisture is removed but they are still pliable...similar to dried apricots. Often times berries are glaced prior to drying such as dried cranberries.Freeze dried raspberries have no moisture in them and are dry and brittle. ...just like the strawberries found in Kelloggs Special K cereal with red berries.

Yes, they dehydrated. I use them in different ways. I make cranberry tea by simply putting a small handful into a mug and pouring boiling water over them. The cranberries re-hydrate somewhat and they can be eaton as you drink the tea. I also put them in muffins. Being natural cranberries, just dehydrated (maybe not what you expected!), they are good for people who don't want the extra sugar from things like craisins. They are loaded. I am Type II diabetic, so these cranberries are perfect for me. Experiment. I actually eat them raw too!

It says fructose and sucrose on the ingredients list. Try the no sugar added cherries by Country Spoon!

Greetings; These are not oiled or sugared. They are dried and therefore not moist. I add them to breads, muffins etc. Since we eschew sugar, we don't mind but for most, they would not be acceptable unless eaten mixed with raisins so the raisins can add some sweetness. I also add them to some vegetable mixes which I steam. They will absorb some water and become a little moist and softer. Do hope I helped. All best.

It is a lot of cherries because they are dried, and it is very hard to find high quality ones like these that are just cherries( but still really good) without any additives or sugar. I think it is worth it.

They are not to eat without putting them in cooked cereal ...they are sour chewy non tasting dried cranberry that can be put in a muffin or cookie dough before baking .......I would not combined them with anything else unless you can handle the taste in cold food......I will not purchased them again.....
