About Golden berry

Golden berry is the edible fruit commonly sold fresh or dried under that name. The fruit is small, round, and yellow to orange, often enclosed in a papery husk when fresh. Its flavour is tart-sweet and aromatic, with a soft, juicy texture when ripe.

It is eaten fresh or dried and used in preserves, baked goods, and other preparations. Dried berries are chewier and more concentrated in flavour than fresh fruit. The name is used in commerce for fruit sold in different forms, so the record does not specify whether it is fresh, dried, or processed.
