How are Raspberries Stored?

Raspberries contain large amounts of vitamin C, vitamin A, calcium, potassium, iron and fiber.

You need about 200 grams of raspberries a day to get the necessary amount of vitamin C for the day.

Raspberries are a very soft fruit and are easily injured. Once you have collected or bought them, it is good to eat them immediately, because they are difficult to store.

Avoid buying or picking large quantities of raspberries. Raspberries are a perishable fruit, that quickly soften and mold forms at room temperature.

How are raspberries stored?

Raspberries are refrigerated for about two days, but no longer.

Another way to store raspberries is to freeze them. This way you will be able to keep them for a longer time.

Freezing them is easy.

First, choose healthy and ripe raspberries. Clean them from the leaves. Then wash them and let them drain. Put the raspberries in small bags. When tying or folding full bags of raspberries, make sure there is no air left in them.

Then place them in the freezer.

Frozen raspberries can easily be used in fruit pies, tarts, raspberry cakes or dairy ice creams.
