Goldenberry
GOLDEN BERRY (PHYSALIS PERUVIANA) IS A FRUIT CHARACTERISTIC TO THE PERU REGIONS BASED ON HIGH ALTITUDES. HOWEVER, THE PLANT COULD BE ALSO ENCOUNTERED IN BRAZIL AND OTHER COUNTRIES OF HOT CLIMATES (INCL. EQUADOR, COLUMBIA, AUSTRALIA, HAWAII). IN EUROPE GOLDEN BERRY IS AVAILABLE IN THE FORM OF DRIED FRUITS.
GOLDEN BERRY BIO BY PURELLA COMES FROM ORGANIC FARMING BASED IN PERU, WHERE IT IS LOOKED AFTER AT EACH STAGE OF THE CULTIVATION PROCESS.
Throughout planting, maturing and harvesting, no spraying is used. Fruits are picked manually and then selected. Non-GMO and naturally gluten-free, they are a perfect snack for anyone suffering from celiac disease, being on vegetarian and vegan diets. Goldenberry suppresses demand for traditional sweets and that is why it is recommended to diabetics.

DID YOU KNOW?
Although dried goldenberry looks and tastes like berry fruits, it is more related to tomatoes that to raspberries, for example. Fresh goldenberry resembles tiny yellow cocktail tomatoes and it belongs to the same plant family. Once dried, it tastes more like berry fruits.
The French name for goldenberry is ”amour en cage”, meaning ”love in the cage” and refers to the fruit appearance (yellow fruits are “closed” in the paper-like shell).
