Oh dear, it took me a second to figure out what you meant!  Strange but true, 
it's what an ordinary blueberry turns into when you procrastinate and leave 
it on the bush forever.  I would guess it works best with the smaller, 
mealier types, but may be true of the jumbo ones as well, if they don't rot.  
Sometimes they even dry, and then it's literally solid sugar.  And the birds 
have to cooperate, or at least be netted out.  It's really quite a phenom, 
which my partner Lee actually discovered.
