Arctic Cloudberries grow in northern Sweden, Norway and Finland. Once the peaty upland soil thaws in the spring small bog plants appear each plant producing one flower at most, and of these only the females turn into cloudberries, the ratio being 3:1 in favour of males. What is uniquely amazing about cloudberries is that they ripen under the midnight sun - only the arctic phenomenon of 24hr daylight allows this delicious fruit to develop its distinctive flavour so far north. To flourish the plants need a precise range of temperatures and a late frost can knock out a whole crop: bumper harvests happen only once every 10 years. They are a great source of vitamins A and C the levels of the latter being so high, (100g / 100g berries) Scandinavian sailors took barrel loads on board ship to prevent scurvy.
