Sugar-infused dried blueberries are typically made by immersing dried blueberries in a sugar syrup or solution. The blueberries are often first dried to reduce their moisture content and then delicately infused or coated with a sugar mixture. This process allows the blueberries to absorb the sweetness and moisture from the sugar, resulting in plumper, slightly tacky berries with a sweeter taste. After the infusion, they are dried again to achieve the desired texture and moisture level, creating the sugar-infused dried blueberries.

Nutritional Value
The nutritional content might vary slightly from standard dried blueberries due to the added sugar content. They still contain nutrients like fiber and antioxidants found in blueberries.
Moisture and Binding
The added sugar acts as a binding agent and also contributes to the moisture content, creating a slightly stickier surface.
Aromatics
While the natural aroma of the blueberries remains, there might be a subtle sweet aroma from the sugar.
Balance and Contrast
