Raspberries are the edible fruit of the raspberry plant. They grow on woody stemmed perennials, but they're also a very commercial crop. If their thorny stems remind you of a rose bush, it's because they are in the rose family.' Rubus is the plural form of Rubus, which is their genus name.
To make up one raspberry, approximately 100 tiny drupelets cling together to make up one raspberry. The drupelets are made from Raspberry pulp and juice. The drupelets are clinging to a stem receptacle attached to a stem. The raspberry is left with a hollow core after the receptacle is removed.
When you're enjoying your pie, keep in mind that raspberries are high in vitamin C, manganese, and fiber. Whether you're eating your pie or not. They also contain vitamins B1, B3, folic acid, magnesium, copper, and iron.
