Introducing Custard Apples!

Embark on a journey to taste royalty with Custard Apples, also known as Cherimoya fruit. This ancient Incan fruit, native to Central America, was once reserved exclusively for the elite due to its unparalleled flavour, earning it the title of the 'King of fruits'. Indulge in the sweet symphony of tropical flavours as you savour this exquisite fruit, often referred to as the custard fruit.

Custard Apples - Creamy Wonders of Tropics

The sweet flavour of our custard apple fruit resembles a combination of tropical tastes such as bananas, strawberries and coconut. It's an exotic paradise captured within a single fruit. The moment you taste its creamy flesh, you'll understand why it's called the custard fruit. The texture is velvety and smooth, reminiscent of a luscious custard dessert, adding an extra layer of indulgence to your culinary experience.
