Very sneaky, chrissie
I'd suggest you simply eat them this year. It will take another couple years before you get a good production from your bush...provided the birds don't beat you to it. I've had my cage up for 2 months now and the robins still land on it en mass trying to figure out how to get in.
Now that mine are cropping so well, I mostly freeze them and later I can turn them into whatever I need.

I have two bushes in pots on the patio, I just eat them straight off the bush when I'm passing. Some days I eat 11 or 12 some days only 4 or 5. Have to beat my grandson to them though when he's here! (try not to pick fruit off a bush as I don't want him to try other 'fruit' looking things as he's only 3 and might not know the difference).
