Montmorency Unsweetened Dried Cherries, No Added Sugar, Just a Light Coating of Sunflower Oil to Prevent Sticking.
We’re often asked why the unsweetened dried cherries are more expensive than the sweetened dried cherries. It’s because there are almost twice as many cherries per pound in the unsweetened cherries. Sugar, which is a fairly inexpensive ingredient, acts as a preservative, and also adds weight and plumpness to the cherries. Without it, the cherries need to be dried to a greater extent in order to be shelf stable.
This results in a smaller, lighter, and chewier dried cherry (still delicious, especially if you like ’em tart!), thus many more cherries per pound.

These pieces really set a standard in the intdrusy.

The very finest. I’ve shopped around practically every store in the Dallas, Texas metroplex. Can’t find quality, non-sweetened Montmorency cherries like these anywhere. Not even the high dollar organic store I frequent.

These are sooo good. I can’t say enough about these little bites of goodness. I eat them with my yogurt or with slices of Italian hard cheese. Devine. Takes a few bites to get used to the tartness but then I can’t stop eating them!

I believe these cherries halted my gout flare-up; maybe about 20 a day.

We purchased these cherries for our bakery, The Village Nosh. Outstanding quality cherries and great customer service. We’ll definitely be purchasing them on a regular basis for our Pistachio Cherry Biscotti.

I bought cherry concentrate and dried cherries to treat my husband’s gout. I received the order quickly – within 3 days. Everything was well packed. All products are of excellent quality! The concentrate is beautifully colored, thick and tasty. Dried cherries are very tasty, although without sugar. The more you eat, the more you crave it. I will buy again and recommend to everyone! Thanks to the KING ORCHARDSE Team for their great products and service. With gratitude and respect Elena

Absolutely love King Orchard’s unsweetened tart cherries. Most stores around Phoenix area, if they carry tart cherries, are sweetened. Why would anybody ruin a great tart cherry with sugar is beyond me. Love all your products that I have purchased!! I will always be a loyal customer
