This is really helpful because I know like myself I had freezed blueberries and raspberries
before but I must have done something wrong because they ended up all soggy , good enough
that I made a smoothie out of them but that wasn’t what I had in mind.. so thanks for sharing this.

This is great to know! I am defiantly going to remember this for the summer when I get all the perfectly ripe berries so I can save some for winter!
Good information to know.
This also works well for blueberries.
This is so useful–wish I had seen it earlier!
Thanks so much for the great tip! I will definitely be trying this soon1
I want to freeze some of both berries. I tried dehydrating a lot of fruits and veggies this week. I did not think about freezing them.
I love picking raspberries and black berries but the freezing part never works for me. I will give these tips a try.
I never realized how quick and easy freezing berries could be. I am sorry the season is over, I would have picked more!
Great advice and big helps. Buy now if you can still get a deal on them and freeze for winter when prices really rise. Plus, using frozen is great for smoothies.
Thank you so much for sharing this.
This a great way to freeze berries for best flavor.
Thank you for sharing the proper way to do this.
Great info and tips. For some reason, I always thought that berries would get mushy if you freezed them at home. This will be great to save some of the fresh berries we have from summer.
Thanks for the tips. I get frustrated when I freeze berries and they stick together. I will try this way and hopefully they wont stick together
I love to freeze berries and this is a great reminder that I need to freeze some berries so I can save some for this fall.
I have always wanted to know how to freeze raspberries and blackberries and this really lets me know in an easy way how to do it. I like to have this fruit in the freezer when it is too expensive to buy in the winter. Thanks for the information.
it would be great to see food ideas.
Thank you for the tips as I have never frozen any types of berries before. I would love to do this especially when I can get berries on sale.
Love the recipes.
