What it is

Goldenberries are small, tart, golden-orange fruits that grow inside a papery husk. They are native to South America but are now grown in many parts of the world. The berries are typically dried for use in food products, which concentrates their flavor and sweetness.

Why it's used

Dried goldenberries are often used as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer in snack foods. Their tartness can add a bright note to products like energy bars, trail mixes, and baked goods. They can also be incorporated into popcorn and peanut snacks for a unique sweet and sour taste.

Health notes

Goldenberries are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. They are a source of vitamins and antioxidants. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated goldenberries, but no specific numeric limits were set. Evidence on specific health benefits is still developing.

Allergen info

Goldenberries are not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
