Place a walnut and a partition from the walnut inside each berry. Prepare a syrup by boiling 1 kilogram of sugar with 500 ml of water. Pour the hot syrup over the berries, add anise, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and transfer to a sterilized jar. Allow to cool, cover with a lid, and store in the refrigerator.
