Coconut Cream Mango Box

What can we say, Coconut Cream and Mango together in the same sentence? Imagine that. Coconut cream mangoes are la crème de la crème of mangoes. These are the rare and delicious mangos that are in the coconut flavor category. When they start to ripen, the aroma is of an unforgettable piña colada that magically transports your tastebuds to a tropical paradise. Are we exaggerating? We don’t think so!
The flesh has very little fiber and it’s a beautiful yellow with orange overtones. The fruit flesh is so smooth that will dissolve in your mouth, this is where the cream part comes from.
These mangoes are very special, and we only have a limited quantity so our recommendation is to take advantage before they sell out or we eat them ourselves, we surely have thought about it.
***These mangoes are grown in Florida and unfortunately, cannot ship to California.***

This fruit is so weird-looking that it was even featured on TV as fruit from another planet. Trekkies, now you can enjoy a fruit featured in a Star Trek Episode as the Golana Melon. If Google is indeed correct, the episode’s name was titled “Time’s Orphan”.
What does the Kiwano Melon taste like?
The inside is gelatinous and full of seeds, making it look like the perfect alien piece of fruit and it tastes like a delicious cross between melon, and cucumber with a hint of banana and lime and you may eat the seeds if you so desire. This beautifully bizarre-looking fruit is part cucumber and part melon and 100% worthy of your fancy fruit platter.
As they say on the show, “Live long, (Eat Kiwano Melon) and prosper! 🖖 If you order from Tropical Fruit Box, of course.” We added that last part. 😉
Haitian Joumou Squash Box
$99.00
Joumou Squash is the main ingredient in Haitian Joumou Soup. A New Year Tradition that dates all the way back to January 1st, 1804. The Joumou has a checkered past but it’s a beautiful story of redemption. According to the story, the French masters forbid the Haitian slaves from enjoying Soup Joumou, a delicacy reserved only for the white colonizers. After a 12-year struggle, Haiti became the first country to have a successful revolt that ended slavery. When Jean-Jacques Dessalines declared Haiti’s independence from the French colonizers, Soup Joumou became a symbol of freedom and a celebration of Haiti’s independence. This is why, on January 1st, if you are Haitian, no matter what part of the world you are in, you are making Soup Joumou and indulging in this tasty dish that has come to be known as Freedom Soup. This box contains 16 pounds of Joumou Squash
