Raspberry nuts are the small seeds of the raspberry that give the fruit its wavy structure. Strictly speaking, the raspberry is not a berry, but a collective stone fruit. A single raspberry consists of many small stone fruits with their own seeds. This explains why raspberries contain so many seeds. And that's exactly what we want to get to! To do this, we separate the raspberry nuts from the pulp. The small seeds are then gently dried and ground.
They contain the valuable ingredient ellagic acid. Ellagic acid belongs to the group of phenolic acids ; these are only found in nuts and fruits. In addition to the valuable ellagic acid, Lüttge Raspberry Nuts score points with their high content of fiber and polyunsaturated fatty acids.
