◉ Currants. Answer: This is a small red, black, or golden white berry
that grows in grape-like clusters.
◉ Zante Currant. Answer: This is the most common type of "currant"
used in baking, but it is actually a small, sweet variety of seedless
grapes.
◉ Aggregate Fruits. Answer: This classification is a cluster of tiny
fruits. Blackberries, raspberries, loganberries and boysenberries are
all actually not berries but fall into this category.
◉ Blackberries. Answer: This is a sweet, dark purple to black
aggregate fruit that grows on a bramble bush.
,◉ Raspberries. Answer: This is a slightly tart, red aggregate fruit
that grows in clusters. Because of its velvety soft texture it is one of
the most fragile fruits available commercially.
◉ Loganberries. Answer: This is a red-purple hybrid aggregate fruit
made by crossbreeding a raspberry and a blackberry. The shape and
size are similar to a blackberry but are redder in color.
◉ Boysenberries. Answer: This is a deep maroon hybrid aggregate
fruit made by crossbreeding a raspberry, blackberry and a
boysenberry.
◉ Grape. Answer: This class of fruit is oval with a smooth skin and
grows on woody vines in large clusters. They are the most widely
grown fruit mostly due to their use in wine-making.
◉ Thompson Grapes. Answer: This is a seedless grape that is pale to

and has a thin edible skin. They grow on trees or bushes and are an
excellent source of antioxidants and dietary fiber.

There are over 7,500 cultivated varieties and they are available year
round with a peak season between late August to early November.
◉ True. Answer: 1 oz of raisins and 1 cup of grapes contain
approximately the same nutritional value. True or false?
◉ Approximately 50%. Answer: What is the average yield
percentage of apples by weight?
◉ Pears. Answer: This is a bell-shaped pome with a thin peel and
sweet flesh. There are thousands of varieties and they should be
