As an alternative to chocolate peanut butter cups, Sun-Maid created yogurt-covered raisin treats with a peanut butter flavor. Alongside Peanut Butter Yogurt Covered Raisins, there's also [PB](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pbj-cookie)&J Yogurt Covered Raisins for those who love a similar take on a classic food pairing. For the Halloween season, Sun Maid's Sour Raisin Snacks have been decked out with glow-in-the-dark packaging, which share a sweet way for kids to indulge in strawberry and blue raspberry flavors. As Sun-Maid describes, its "Sour Raisin Snacks are fruit snacks the way nature intended—they taste like sour candy but are whole fruit." Once held up to UV or smartphone light, the playful raisin snack packaging reveals bats that glow.
