About Cloudberries

Cloudberries are small, soft berries of northern and alpine regions, usually gathered wild and sold fresh, frozen, or preserved. They can be eaten plain when ripe or used in preserves, sauces and desserts. The berry consists of clustered drupelets and is typically amber to orange when ripe, with a delicate, easily bruised structure.

Their flavour is distinctive, aromatic and tart-sweet, with a soft, juicy texture that can become more jam-like as the fruit ripens. Fresh availability is limited in many places, so frozen and preserved forms are common. Sugar added to jam or other preparations means those products are not nutritionally equivalent to unsweetened berries.
