New Cranberry Raisinets

I’m a fan of anything with cranberry, so I was really excited to get package of Nestle’s new Cranberry Raisinets in the mail yesterday!

Raisinets are milk chocolate-covered raisins. Pretty simple, but usually pretty satisfying!

Sadly, my little sample packet of the Cranberry Raisinets showed up completely melted, so I have no pictures of the candies themselves, however if you’ve ever seen the regular raisin ones then I’m sure you’ve got an idea of what they look like anyway!

Because they were so melted I don’t have a terribly accurate review of them either, but I did cut a pack open and scraped out some of the mess. The cranberries were nice and soft, which is always a bonus (who likes hard dried fruit?).

The chocolate, unfortunately, was pretty unremarkable. In fact, it was downright grainy and almost waxy, but I’m not sure if that’s normal or because it was melted and mixed up with the cranberries. I’ll have to see if I can locate a “fresh” pack at the store the next time I go.

Raisinets are launching the Cranberry Raisinets campaign with some dried fruit drama, which you can check out at Raisinets.com.
