Classic red raspberries have a new cousin. These fruits have a delicate yellow colour and numerous noteworthy nutritional values. Don't miss them at the market stand!

Do you like raspberries? This will be an exciting addition to your diet. Yellow raspberries differ from the well-known red ones not only in colour. We’ll tell you what else makes these fruits unique.

Sweet and sour

How do yellow raspberries taste? This is the first question that comes to mind. These raspberries certainly stand out among other fruits. They are both sweet and sour simultaneously, but both tastes are balanced. These raspberries have a beautiful aroma and a slightly spicy note thanks to the acids naturally present in them.

Lots of benefits

The flavour experience is slightly different, but the nutritional values of yellow and red raspberries are very similar. They are among the healthiest fruits, providing a significant portion of fibre, vitamin C, and antioxidants each time. Raspberries also have an impact on lowering blood sugar and are recommended for the prevention of diabetes and insulin resistance. Their glycemic index is low. Yellow raspberries produce fruit twice a year, in July and then from September to October. Therefore, they are often called autumn raspberries. There is still some time to try them.

More durable

What else sets them apart? Red raspberries are delicious but need to be eaten quickly because they are incredibly delicate. They are not suitable for long-term storage. It's a bit different with these yellow ones, as they can stay fresh for up to a week.

Perfect for snacks and preserves

Yellow raspberries are delicious when eaten raw and can be added to desserts or smoothies. They are also suitable for preserves, like jams and jellies, and are perfect for baking cakes. You can comfortably buy them in larger quantities as they are more durable and better withstand transport and storage than red raspberries. The fruits also do not tend to spoil quickly.
