cloudberry

Tundra bramble berry

Cloudberry is an orange-yellow berry that grows in arctic and subarctic regions, prized for its tart flavor.

The low-growing plant thrives in boggy terrain across Scandinavia, Russia, Canada, and Alaska.

Cloudberries are used in jams, liqueurs, and traditional Nordic desserts: cloudberry jam on waffles.

The berries are difficult to cultivate commercially, making them expensive outside their native range.
