Raisin Day is observed annually on April 30th. Raisins are low in fat and contain important nutrients like iron, copper, calcium, and antioxidants, potassium, fiber and vitamin B. Chocolate covered raisins have been popular with moviegoers for many, many years and they continue to be. They are also a popular bulk vending item across the country.
The Blumenthal Chocolate Company introduced the Raisinets to the United States in 1927 and then in 1984, the brand was acquired by Nestle. In some countries, chocolate covered raisins are known as Raisinets. Raisinets were the earliest and one of the most popular brands of the product. Currently made by Nestle, they are the third largest selling candy in United States history.
