Chocolate-covered raisins are one of the standard foods that are covered in chocolate. Frequently sold as a vending product, they consist of a raisin covered in chocolate. The chocolate can be milk, dark or white, although milk chocolate is probably the most common..
It is not known precisely when or where the candy originated. It is possible that the original cultures of the Americas, having access to cacao beans, would have had something similar. The earliest probable reference to something like this is in Germany, as there is a German folk tale describing something similar.
Unlike most candies, the size of chocolate-covered raisins can vary quite a bit. This is due to the different sizes of the raisins themselves, which are whole when they are covered in chocolate.
