Sunsweet Pitted Prunes G/F 200 g

Soft, dark and chewy, with a deep fruity sweetness and a faint vanilla note behind it. These are Californian dried plums, pitted and ready to eat straight from the pack - no stones to work around, which is the whole reason people buy them this way.

Sunsweet pits them using its own process, which is what keeps them plump and moist rather than leathery. The ingredient list is one line: pitted prunes. No added sugar, no fat, and they carry naturally occurring potassium, vitamin K, manganese and B6 along with dietary fibre.

Four or five is a reasonable handful for a snack. Beyond that they chop into porridge, muesli or yoghurt at breakfast, bake into muffins and cakes where they hold their moisture, and work sliced through salads or into savoury braises where a little natural sweetness helps. The 200 g pack is the everyday pantry and lunchbox size.

Sunsweet is a grower-owned Californian cooperative. The prunes are certified gluten free and GMO free.
