The 'raisin pudding' model of the atom is more traditionally called the 'plum pudding model'.

The plums represented negatively charged corpuscles (electrons) surrounded by a positively charged pudding.

The plum pudding model became outdated in 1909 - 1911 when experiments showed that the positively charged atoms were extremely small.
