It has taken ten years and some rather painstaking work, but horticulturists have managed to grow orange raspberries.
The new breed, called Autumn Amber, is the same shape and size as the red raspberry and tastes the same, although some growers have said they are slightly more tangy.
Horticulturalists at the East Malling Research Centre in Kent crossed a red raspberry plant with the yellow variety using natural cross-pollination techniques until they achieved the perfect orange shade.
