Pineapple is a kind of multiple fruit. Multi-fruits, also called collective fruits, are fruiting bodies formed from a cluster of flowers, the inflorescence.

Each ('smallish') flower produces a single fruitlet, which, as all develop, all merge into one mass of fruit. [28] Examples include pineapple, fig, mulberry, Osage orange, and breadfruit. An inflorescence (a cluster) of white ...

The fruit of blackberries and raspberries comes from a single flower whose pistil is made up of a number of free carpels.
