FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Are red currants high in sugar?

No, red currants are naturally low in sugar compared to many other fruits. A 100-gram serving typically contains around 7 to 8 grams of natural sugars, which is lower than fruits like grapes or bananas. Because of this, red currants are often seen as a light and refreshing fruit option that provides sweetness without too much sugar.

Which is healthier, raisins or currants?

Both raisins and currants offer nutritional benefits, but fresh or frozen currants are generally seen as healthier. Raisins are dried grapes, which means the sugars become more concentrated during the drying process. Frozen currants, on the other hand, keep their natural water content, vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, making them a lower-calorie and more hydrating choice.

What can I do with frozen red currants?

Frozen red currants are very versatile and can be used in many recipes. You can add them to smoothies, yogurt bowls, cakes, muffins, jams, fruit sauces, or breakfast oats. They also work well in desserts like sorbets or cheesecakes and can even be used as a tangy topping for pancakes or salads.

Can a diabetic eat currants?

People with diabetes can usually enjoy currants in moderate amounts. Fresh or frozen currants have a relatively low glycemic load and provide fiber and antioxidants that may help overall health. However, it is important to avoid sweetened or dried currants with added sugar and consult a healthcare professional if necessary.

Do frozen red currants lose nutrients?

Freezing is one of the best preservation methods for fruit. Red currants are often frozen shortly after harvest, which helps maintain their vitamins, antioxidants, and natural flavor. In many cases, frozen berries can be as nutritious as fresh ones.

How do you thaw frozen red currants?

Frozen red currants can be thawed by placing them in the refrigerator for a few hours or leaving them at room temperature for about 20–30 minutes. If you are using them in smoothies or baking, you can often use them directly from frozen.
