💛 What makes Canistel Fruit so special?

You will be surprised how many health benefits this fruit can offer! Canistel or Egg Fruit (Pouteria campechiana) is a beautiful, curiously shaped piece of Nature's Art, and the tree is super easy to grow. Native to South America, it is relatively cold hardy and fast growing, providing with the first crop within a year or two.

📍 Variety of Shapes: Can be round, oval, spindle, or heart-shaped with a smooth, glossy skin.
📍 Ripening Color: Turns yellow or pale orange when ready to harvest.
📍 Unique Texture: Firm and mealy flesh, becoming softer and pasty at the center - similar to a hard-boiled egg yolk.
📍 Sweet Flavor: Musky, with hints of baked sweet potato.
📍 Culinary Uses: Enjoy fresh with salt, lime, or mayonnaise; or use in custards, milkshakes, pancakes, jams, and ice cream.
📍 Versatile Ingredient: Popular in Thailand for cakes, jelly, and other desserts.

New variety of Sapodilla? Thai Brownie!

✏️ New variety of Sapodilla? Thai Brownie!

🍪 Back in 2005, TopTropicals crew traveled to Thailand and discovered very interesting variety of Sapodilla at the fruit market (first pic). No one could tell us the name of this variety so we named it Brownie. We brought the seeds with us...
🍪 Seven years later, we've had fruiting trees from those seeds! The fruit was even more elongated that the parent.
🍪 The trees we have right now for sale are the second generation, seedlings from that original Thai Brownie. Try these for your fruit forest!
🍪 The elongated fruit is small, 3-4" long, smooth pulp is very sweet.
