Sultanas are made from green grapes. Raisins are made from dark grapes.
According to OChef.com (see related links, below), the generic term for a dried grape is '''raisin'''. A '''Sultana''' is a particular type of raisin. Compared to a regular raisin a sultana is lighter in colour, sweeter and more moist, and less acidic.
Originally, Sultanas were produced in Turkey, from the Sultana variety of grape. Nowadays, they are produced from the same variety of grapes as other raisins but by a different process. They are treated with sulphur dioxide and heated artificially. Other raisins are allowed to dry and darken in the sunlight.
The main difference between raisins and sultanas is the type of grape used and the drying process. Raisins are made from red or green grapes, while sultanas are made from seedless green grapes. Raisins are typically dried in the sun or mechanically dried, while sultanas are dried using a special drying process that involves dipping the grapes in a solution to speed up the drying. In terms of taste, sultanas are generally sweeter and juicier than raisins.
Sultanas are dried seedless white grapes, basically raisins without the wrinkles. 55g of sultanas is roughly a small handful, but who really measures when it comes to snacking? Just grab a handful and enjoy!

Yes, you can substitute raisins or sultanas for currants in a fruitcake, though the flavor and texture may differ slightly. Raisins are larger and sweeter, while sultanas are plumper and juicier compared to currants. If using them as a substitute, consider adjusting the quantity to achieve the desired taste and moisture level in the cake.
