The history of Raspberries
Whilst Australia is home to numerous species of native raspberries, the raspberries which are best known and loved originate from Europe. The Romans used raspberries for medicinal purposes and took the berries throughout their empire, spreading the cultivation across Europe.
Raspberry plant

In the 16th century, the British began cultivating raspberries and the red and sweet variety spread to North America. These red raspberries became more favourable than the native black raspberry which was firmer in texture and less sweet in taste. Raspberries later found their way to Australia and are now grown around the country!

Our raspberries are cultivated without genetic modification so they are naturally sweet in taste and stunning in colour.

How to choose

How to choose

The tastiest raspberries are plump and brightly coloured, with a soft, hazy gloss. They should be free of dents and bruises. The tiny hairs you see on raspberries are called ‘styles’ – these are perfectly natural and don’t affect the taste or ripeness of the berries.

How to store

How to store

Raspberries are best kept for one to two days in the fridge in their original packet. We don’t recommend placing them in an airtight container as it will restrict their airflow, and avoid placing them in the crisper, which will dry them out. You can freeze raspberries. Gently rinse them in cool water and allow them to dry completely, before placing them into a freezer-safe container.

How to enjoy

How to enjoy

It’s best to wash your raspberries just before you are ready to enjoy them! Not only are raspberries perfect on their own, but they are also delicious in a drink, jam, savoury dish or in baked goods!
