Yes! it makes them softer because, the method of blanching starts to reorder the particles in the almonds. This relaxes the almonds which therefore, makes them softer!
Bleached almonds are almonds that have undergone a process to remove their brown skin, resulting in a pale, white appearance. This is typically achieved through blanching, where almonds are briefly boiled and then cooled rapidly, allowing the skins to be easily removed. The process not only alters the color but can also affect the flavor and texture, making bleached almonds softer and milder compared to their unbleached counterparts. They are often used in baking and confectionery for aesthetic purposes.
of course ***** I agree, you can use whatever you want! But almonds would be hard and crunchy. There is really no substitute for the softer, moisture raisins.
Blanching is a process of removing the skin from almonds. This allows for easier use in pastes and helps to add color and almond flavoring in many recipes for cakes, cookies or any other baked good that would be enhanced with almonds.
To ensure the safety of bitter almonds when preparing them for consumption, it is important to properly process them to remove the toxic compounds. This can be done by blanching the almonds in hot water to remove the outer skin, which contains most of the toxins. It is also recommended to only consume bitter almonds in moderation, as excessive consumption can be harmful.

Blanching works by quickly cooking the food and then quickly stopping the cooking progress. This is usually stopped using ice water.
