Wildcrafted, Sun Dried Golden Berries, also named Incan Berries or Cape Gooseberries. Once cultivated in the Incan Empire, these vine-ripened berries are deliciously sweet with a tangy pineapple-like flavor. Dried golden berries have a dark orange color and are similar but larger in appearance to the traditional raisin, with wrinkled translucent skin.

Eat Golden Berries straight out of the bag, or try them in a raw recipe or smoothie. When you're looking for that post-dinner or movie snack, these will fill the space. A little go a long way. And they need no refrigeration. Traditionally golden berries have been used to help ailments including, asthma, edema, optic nerve disorders, throat afflictions, intestinal parasites, and amoebic dysentery.

Golden berries are considered a good source of vitamin P (bioflavonoids) and are rich in pectin. Hundreds of studies on bioflavonoids have shown that they possess antiviral, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, antihistamine and antioxidant activities. Golden Berries make a delicious, tart and highly nutritious and exotic "raisin." They are high in phosphorous, vitamins A, C, B1, B2, B6 and B12. They are also extremely high in protein (16%) for a fruit.
