About DARK CHOCOLATE CHERRIES, DARK CHOCOLATE
Meijer Dark Chocolate Cherries is a chocolate-covered dried fruit confection produced under the Meijer private-label brand of Meijer, Inc., headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Dried cherries (sweetened with sugar and coated with sunflower oil to prevent sticking) form the fruit center, enrobed in dark chocolate and finished with a polished confectioner's glaze shell. The dark chocolate coating is made from sugar, chocolate liquor, cocoa butter, a second alkalized chocolate liquor (processed with alkali for different flavor profile), butterfat (milk), soy lecithin, natural vanilla flavor, and salt. The coating system uses water, gum arabic, confectioner's glaze, modified tapioca starch, coconut oil, and canola oil.
Per 100 g, this product delivers 438 calories, 68.75 g carbohydrates, 21.88 g fat, 3.12 g protein, and 6.20 g dietary fiber. The high carbohydrate content reflects both the dried cherries' natural fruit sugars and added sugar in the drying process, combined with the chocolate coating's sugar content. The dual chocolate liquor system (one alkalized, one natural) creates a layered chocolate flavor depth.
Dairy is present as butterfat (milk) in the chocolate coating. Soy lecithin introduces a soy allergen. No wheat, eggs, peanuts, or tree nuts are declared. Not suitable for dairy-free or vegan dietary approaches. Compatible with gluten-free dietary patterns based on the stated ingredients. The use of sunflower oil on the dried cherries avoids common soybean oil usage in many competing dried fruit products.
