About Us
OUR HERITAGE
The Ocean Spray story starts in 1930 when three passionate, independent cranberry growers found the key to expanding the superfruit's success: a single cranberry-growing family! By coming together in one cooperative, Marcus Urann, John Makepeace and Elizabeth Lee worked together to create deliciously innovative products with the fruit they loved. The best part? They continued to grow their cranberry family along the way, which now includes over 700 grower families across North and South America!
THE FOUNDING
Once our three founders banded together and launched their first product - Jellied Cranberry Sauce - there was no stopping the Ocean Spray Cooperative. Growers from Wisconsin, Washington and Oregon quickly joined the cooperative, and within its first decade, Ocean Spray became the producer of cranberry juice drinks! Our products were hitting store shelves from coast to coast, and as more years passed, more and more products were created. But to this day, the original Ocean Spray products remain our most popular: Ocean Spray Jellied Cranberry Sauce and Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice Cocktail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 50% less sugar formula still satisfy a sweet craving without derailing my healthy eating goals?
Yes. The dried cranberries are sweetened to deliver the same tangy cranberry taste as regular Craisins with half the sugar, so you can enjoy a satisfying snack while keeping your daily sugar intake in check.
Will the resealable single-serve pouches actually help me control portions at my desk or in my gym bag?
Each 5 oz pouch is pre-portioned so you can grab one and go without over-snacking, and the zip lock keeps the remaining fruit fresh for the next time you need it.
Is this product free of the artificial ingredients I try to avoid in my wellness routine?
Yes. There are no artificial flavors or preservatives in the recipe, which is a major plus for clean-label shoppers building a more mindful pantry.
How much of my daily fruit intake does one serving actually count toward?
Each serving covers 25% of your daily recommended fruit intake, giving you a convenient nutrition boost alongside your breakfast, yogurt bowl, or midday snack.
Can I add these to my Greek yogurt or oatmeal to support a more balanced breakfast?
Absolutely. The tangy dried cranberries are a popular topping for Greek yogurt, porridge, and oatmeal, adding bright fruit flavor and a gentle sweetness without a sugar overload.
I'm cutting back on sugar but still want a tasty snack I can keep at the office — is this a good fit?
Yes. The 50% less sugar formulation gives you a better-for-you snack option that fits in a desk drawer and tastes like a treat, making it ideal for a workday pick-me-up.
Are these dried cranberries something I can use as a salad or grain bowl topping for a wellness-focused lunch?
Definitely. The tangy flavor pairs well with leafy greens, grain bowls, and yogurt-based dishes, so you can add variety to your weekday lunches without extra prep.
Will buying a 12-count bulk pack actually save me money compared to grabbing smaller bags at the store?
Yes. The 12-count pack offers better per-ounce value, and pairing it with Subscribe & Save can make it even more affordable while keeping your pantry stocked automatically.
Is this a good grab-and-go option to toss in my gym bag for after a workout?
Yes. The single-serve pouches are lightweight, resealable, and easy to slip into a gym bag so you can refuel on the way home from a workout.
Are these dried cranberries gluten-free and suitable for my dietary restrictions?
Yes. The recipe is certified gluten-free and peanut-free, so they fit a range of common household allergy and dietary needs.
How do these 50% less sugar Craisins compare to regular Craisins in taste and sweetness?
Most customers find the flavor and sweetness of these 50% less sugar Craisins just as satisfying as the original, with the same tangy cranberry taste and none of the guilt.
Compared to eating fresh cranberries, am I getting any real health benefit from this dried fruit?
Dried cranberries offer a convenient, shelf-stable way to enjoy cranberry flavor year-round, and many shoppers include them as part of a daily routine for general wellness, including feminine health support.
What if I find the dried fruit a little too firm — is there an easy way to enjoy them?
You can steam the cranberries in a small amount of water to plump them up before eating, which softens the texture and brings out a juicier bite.
I worry about dried fruit being dry or stale by the time it arrives — will these be fresh?
Customers consistently report that the pouches arrive with low moisture inside the package, and the zip lock resealable closure helps keep the fruit fresh between servings.
Will the pouches stay fresh if I only open one at a time instead of finishing the whole pack in a week?
Yes. The zip lock resealable packaging is designed to keep the fruit in the opened pouches fresh, so you can work through the 12-count pack at your own pace.
I'm hesitant to buy dried fruit because of added sugar — is 50% less sugar actually meaningful?
Compared to original Craisins, these contain 50% less sugar per serving, which is a meaningful reduction for anyone tracking their daily intake, while still delivering the tangy cranberry taste shoppers expect.
How should I store the pouches after I open one to keep the fruit fresh?
After opening, simply press the zip lock seal closed to remove excess air and store the pouch in a cool, dry place like a pantry, cabinet, or desk drawer. The resealable closure is designed to keep the fruit fresh between servings.
Can I steam or rehydrate the dried cranberries before eating them?
Yes. To plump them up, add the cranberries to a small pot with a splash of water, bring to a gentle simmer for a few minutes, and drain. They'll soften and taste juicier, which works well for both snacking and baking.
What are some easy recipes I can make with these dried cranberries?
These dried cranberries are versatile in the kitchen — stir them into Greek yogurt or oatmeal for breakfast, fold them into muffin or cookie batter, mix them into homemade trail mix with nuts and seeds, add them to salads or grain bowls, or use them in cranberry walnut bread and fruit cakes.
Are these dried cranberries compatible with a gluten-free or peanut-free diet?
Yes. The recipe is certified gluten-free and peanut-free, so it fits common household allergy and dietary restrictions without any cross-contamination concerns from those two allergens.
Will these work with my Subscribe & Save auto-delivery schedule on Shopify?
Yes. The product is available via Subscribe & Save, so you can set your preferred delivery cadence — whether that's monthly, bi-monthly, or every few months — and adjust or cancel anytime from your account.
What's actually in the box when my order arrives?
Your order includes twelve 5 oz resealable pouches of Ocean Spray Craisins 50% Less Sugar Dried Cranberries, totaling 60 oz of dried fruit. No additional accessories or prep are required — the pouches are ready to eat or use in recipes right out of the package.
Is it safe to eat these dried cranberries if I'm watching my sugar intake for a medical reason?
These contain 50% less sugar than original Craisins, but they still contain natural and added sugars from fruit. If you have a medical condition that requires strict sugar monitoring, consult your healthcare provider before adding any dried fruit to your diet.
Are these dried cranberries safe for pets like dogs to eat as an occasional treat?
Some dog owners offer small amounts of dried cranberries as an occasional treat, but the recipe is formulated for human consumption. Always check with your veterinarian before sharing any human food with your dog, and avoid cranberries in recipes that include xylitol, chocolate, or other ingredients that are toxic to pets.
What's the difference between dried cranberries and fresh cranberries for everyday use?
Dried cranberries are shelf-stable, portable, and available year-round, while fresh cranberries are highly seasonal and require refrigeration. Dried cranberries also have a concentrated sweet-tart flavor and chewy texture, making them more convenient for snacking, baking, trail mix, and lunchboxes — though they do contain more concentrated natural sugars per serving than fresh berries.
