Unsweetened cherries are small, round, and juicy fruits with a deep red or dark red color, which have been carefully selected for use in cooking without any added sugar. These cherries are characterized by their naturally sweet and slightly tart flavor, making them an ideal ingredient for healthy recipes, desserts, smoothies, and culinary decorations.
The origin of cherries dates back to regions in the Northern Hemisphere, such as Europe and Asia, particularly in Mediterranean and temperate countries where the climate favors the cultivation of these fruits. Over time, their cultivation has also spread to the Americas and other parts of the world.
In terms of their properties, unsweetened cherries are an excellent natural source of antioxidants, vitamins (such as vitamin C and A), and minerals (such as potassium and iron). Additionally, they are low in calories and rich in fiber, which helps improve digestion and maintain a balanced diet without the extra intake of added sugars.
In different Spanish-speaking countries, cherries may also be known simply as cereza (singular and plural), or in some regions, similar terms like guindas are used for more tart varieties, although the term cerezas sin azúcar is clear and understood throughout Latin America when referring to this type of natural product without additives.
