I would not feed those foods at all because guinea pig pellets are designed for herbivores which hedgehogs are not. I would also refrain from hamster/gerbil mixes because those foods are not safe. Seeds, raisins, nuts are choking hazards and many a hog has gotten them stuck to the roof of their mouths or stuck in their teeth so they couldn't eat.
There are a few hedgehog foods that have dried fruits and nuts, etc. They are not recommended or safe to feed!
