Data Sheet
Is a caperberry the same as a caper?
The caper is the flower bud of the caper bush whereas the caperberry is the fruit of the bush; they have similar flavours but the berry is milder and less piquant. Because the textures are very different they are not interchangeable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Capers are the small, unopened flower buds of the Capparis spinosa plant, hand-harvested and typically pickled in brine or vinegar. Caperberries, by contrast, are the fruit that develops once the flower blooms. They’re larger, often contain seeds, and have a milder, slightly tangy taste. Capers are often used as a seasoning or garnish, while caperberries are commonly served whole as part of tapas or in cocktails.

Capers are valued for their bold, tangy, and slightly lemony flavour, adding zest to dishes like pasta puttanesca, chicken piccata, as well as sauces, fish and Mediterranean salads.
Yes, capers can be a healthy addition to your diet. They’re low in calories and rich in antioxidants such as quercetin and rutin, which may help reduce inflammation and support heart health. They also contain small amounts of vitamins A, K, and E. As they’re often preserved in salt, it’s a good idea to rinse them before use to lower sodium content.
