Raspberries are countable.
I bought some raspberries at the store.
I ate some strawberries for breakfast.
I put some blueberries on my pancakes.
Also, I can say these 3 phrases without the word "some" and it has the same meaning.
I bought raspberries at the store.
I ate strawberries for breakfast.
I put blueberries on my pancakes.
Если говорить о баночке с ягодным вареньем, то можно использовать форму слова в единственном числе.
"What kind of jam do you have?"
"I have strawberry."
Good luck!

Of course ‘raspberry’ can be both countable and uncountable. It’s uncountable as a flavor, countable as a piece of fruit.
I taste some raspberry in the muffin.
There’s no raspberry in the recipe.
