Raspberry chips are small pieces made from raspberries, sugar, oil, flour, and cornstarch, or chocolate flavored with raspberry puree. They are used in baked goods and can be added to trail mix. They come in small pieces and melt when cooked.
There are a couple of different types of raspberry crisps, or raspberries, that cooks can use in a variety of baked goods. The most basic types are made with raspberries, sugar, oil, flour and cornstarch. Other chips can be made from chocolate which is flavored with raspberry puree and eacutee. Although real raspberries are often used in raspberry chips, it is possible to flavor the chips with other natural or artificial flavors.
Raspberry chips are similar to chocolate chips in texture, size, and use. They come in small pieces, usually only about a third of an inch (less than 1 cm) in diameter. Their size allows them to be easily mixed into batter without being chopped or broken. After the batter has finished cooking, the chips are usually spread evenly throughout, creating a dish with lots of little pockets of raspberry flavor. Like the chocolate chips, the raspberry chips will melt as they cook, firming up again as they cool.
Plain raspberry drops are made from a blend of sugar, corn syrup, raspberries or raspberry flavor, and binding agents such as flour and oil. There usually isn’t enough raspberry in these chips to make them red or pink, so food coloring is often added. The ingredients in the chips are mixed together and the chips are cooked and allowed to set into droplets. These chips can then be packaged, sold and used as raspberry chips.
Alternatively, raspberry flavoring can be added to chocolate chips to make chocolate chips. These chips are often flavored with both real and artificial raspberry, but aren’t dyed due to the dark color of the chocolate. Chocolate can easily be made into chips, so adding raspberry to the chocolate mixture means that many of the other ingredients, like corn syrup and flour, can be left out of the chips.
The most common use for raspberry chips is in cakes, cookies, muffins and other baked goods. The raspberry is a fruit that is often used in baking, but it doesn’t have a long growing season, making it hard to find and relatively expensive for much of the year. Many dishes that call for fresh raspberries can use raspberry crisps instead, saving cooks money and allowing them to make raspberry dishes year-round. It’s also possible to toss a handful of these chips into a trail mix, especially one that uses chocolate, almonds, and other nuts since these flavors go well with raspberry.
