druplet

Tiny stone fruit

A druplet is one of the small individual fruit segments that cluster together to form an aggregate fruit.

Each druplet is technically a tiny drupe—a fleshy fruit with a single seed inside a hard pit.

Raspberries and blackberries are composed of many druplets fused together, each containing its own seed.
