Abstract Chinese bayberry ( Myrica rubra Sieb. et Zucc.) fruit (CBF) is widely growing in eastern Asia, mainly China. CBFs contain a high number of polyphenols, especially anthocyanins. However, CBF can be easily damaged and cannot stored for more than 3 days at 20–22 °C 9–12 0–2 °C. Thus, this review explores the potential options long-term preservation consumption CBFs, as well importance by-products.
