Sorry Matty, didnt exactlly explain myself too well. Friend want's me to take a photo of a raspberry so he can blow it up and have it on is wall, don't ask why. He want's it with no shadows on a plain white background. Unfortunately right now I have only built in flash too use, another long story!!!

multiple lights....or maybe a light tent ??

 

[Matt]

i think a light tent, a bright light above is diffuse inside and so even lighting is achieved...

You could also use Photoshop to remove the shadow. I have done it with a few still life images. Only takes a couple of minutes although if your friend wants to enlarge the image you will have to spend a bit more time.

Multiple lights is the way to go.
