Guanabana Fruit Soursop fruit, guanabana, graviola: three names for the same exotic fruit, depending on which country your kitchen learned its tropical recipes from.

The flavor is what everyone agrees on. Bite into ripe soursop fruit and you get creamy white flesh closer in consistency to a smashed banana than a juicy citrus, a flavor profile that lands somewhere between pineapple and strawberry, and a sour citrus finish that earns the English name. Our soursop ships from family farm partners across Central America, South America, and the Caribbean, flown into Miami and shipped the day it arrives. Free U.S. shipping covers every order, with the Arrive Fresh Guarantee on every soursop fruit box. Why Choose Soursop Fruit from Tropical Fruit Box?

Cacao Fruit also called Cacao pods is not what you'd expect. It's much better! Did you know that the literal translation for Cacao’s scientific name means “Food of the Gods”? The Olmecs, an ancient civilization from what is now Mexico, were the first to use Cacao Fruit over 3,500 years ago. They obviously didn’t know what they had because if they did, we’d all be speaking Olmec right now… Instead, the just the airport in Brussels, Belgium sells over 800 tons of chocolate every year but, we digress. Cacao Fruit and Chocolate Cacao Pods are these American football shape-inspired fruits and coincidentally are where Chocolate comes from. Yes, the name is a little confusing and we get a lot of people asking for cocoa fruit, cocoa, cacao... does it even matter, at the end it all comes form the cacao bean that lives inside the fruit. The taste couldn’t be any more different than the delicacy we’ve been groomed to gift to our loved ones. The white flesh has a pretty delicious zingy sweet flavor, it’s hard to describe its tart, fruity, citrusy flavor with mango and pineapple notes. The seeds are the ones used to actually make Chocolate and when you bite into them, you can taste what unprocessed pure chocolate is like. The regular box contains 4 pieces of Cacao Fruits and the large box has 6 pieces of this Food of the Gods. Don’t wait, order your box of Cacao fruit today.

If you haven’t tried Tropical Avocados, you are in for a treat. To my family, the Tropical Avocado has always been known as an Aguacate, pronounced (ah-gwa-kah-tee). This variety is a staple food in the Caribbean and Latin America where it’s been the most popular variety for generations. Tropical Avocados are also known as green skin avocados because of their shiny and gorgeous shade of green. They are a source of good fats, are hearty, yummy, and are full of nutrients. How do Tropical Avocados taste like? When it comes to taste, they are pretty similar to the Haas avocado although slightly sweeter. They are creamy, luscious, and delicious. They spread very easily and have a buttery and creamy smooth texture. They have a light yellow and green color inside, and the seed can be brittle but that’s OK. The reality is that they are very similar to the avocados you are used to. How are Tropical Avocados better? Larger in size: The first thing you’ll notice is that they are humongous compared to the varieties you can buy at the supermarket. Each Tropical Avocado is about the equivalent of 4 Haas avocados. You can prep just one and feed your whole family. Longer cut life: One of my pet peeves with those other avocados is that they turn black and the flavor changes right away, in the industry they call that oxidizing. The Tropical Avocados oxidize much slower which means that you can cut them and leave them out for longer. You can even keep one in the fridge wrapped in foil for two to three days after you cut them. How do you know when they are ripe? These avocados are ripe while the skin is still green, which is a little confusing if you are not used to them. Luckily, there is a simple way to know when they are ready. How? When you squeeze them and they give in just a little, they are ready to eat. Where are they from? These avocados are grown in the tropics on a beautiful farm in the Dominican Republic and in the off season over there, they come from beautiful and sunny Florida, where we are based. They grow with plenty of natural rain in nutrient-rich soil. They are naturally large, non-GMO and delicious. Our Large Box comes with about 8 Large Tropical Avocados. Our Regular Box has 4 Large Tropical Avocados.

Fresh Longans, Sweet and Juicy This box brings you fresh longans in a 3, 5, or 8 pound order, picked from the family farms our growers have worked for generations. Crack the thin tan shell and you find translucent flesh wrapped around a dark seed, which is how longan dragon eye earned its name. The flesh is succulent, sweet, and incredibly juicy, with a flavor close to grape and a light, musky floral note. Longan is a close cousin of the lychee and rambutan, a little smaller and a touch less sweet, with its own personality. Eat fresh longan fruit straight from the shell, drop it into fruit salads, or blend it into sorbets and smoothies. Once you start it is genuinely hard to stop. Every order ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your longans arrive juicy and ready to peel.

Best Ways to Enjoy Longan Snacking Straight From the Shell Fresh longan fruit is made for easy snacking. Pinch the thin shell, pop out the juicy flesh, and discard the seed. Their grape-like sweetness makes longans the kind of fruit that disappears by the handful. Smoothies and Sorbets Longans blend beautifully into sorbets, smoothies, and chilled desserts. The sweet, juicy flesh adds a floral, grape-like note, a refreshing base for warm-weather treats once you peel and seed the fruit. Fruit Salads and Desserts Fresh longan brightens any fruit salad or dessert. Peeled and pitted, the translucent flesh pairs well with lychee, mango, and citrus for a tropical bowl with a melt-in-your-mouth texture. Lychee and Rambutan Fans Longan dragon eye is a natural next pick for anyone who loves lychee or rambutan. As close cousins in the soapberry family, they share that juicy, floral character, with longan offering a milder twist.

Breadfruit is considered by many the food of the future, Breadfruit also called Ulu or Panapen and it's been a staple food in the Pacific islands for over 2000 years. Ulu is an important part of the local food tradition and folklore in Hawaii. It can be prepared like a fruit or a vegetable since it's incredibly versatile. When roasted, it feels and tastes like baked bread, hence the name. Fun facts about Breadfruit Sir Joseph Banks, a sailor who embarked with Captain Cook to Tahiti in the 18th Century famously said that if you planted 10 breadfruit trees in your life, you or your future generations would never go hungry, we paraphrase of course. It is said that the famous mutiny of the H.M.S Bounty happened because of Breadfruit! The mission of the Bounty was to transplant more than 1000 young breadfruit trees, but they arrived late. Fate would have it that in the months they spent waiting, the crew grew enchanted with the island and didn’t want to leave. Forced to depart, the unhappiness of the crew eventually turned into mutiny. So there you have it, breadfruit has a long history! According to scientists, it has an amazing future in the food security of many nations and the world. Sir Joseph Banks was right!

This box brings you fresh tree tomatoes in your choice of 3, 5, or 8 pound sizes. Our tamarillos grow at altitudes above 5,000 feet in Ecuador, and the fancy scientists call them Solanum betaceum, a nightshade relative of the tomato. The flavor lives up to the family name, mixing guava and passion fruit notes with the tangy tomato edge that earned it the tree tomato name. The thin skin is bitter, so peel it or blanch it off, or simply cut the fruit in half and scoop out the juicy, seed-flecked flesh with a spoon.

Blended into Salsas and Chutneys The tree tomato's tangy, tomato-adjacent flavor makes it a natural for salsas, chutneys, and sauces. Peel, chop, and simmer it with onion and chili for a condiment that wakes up grilled meats and cheeses. Stirred into Breakfast and Smoothies Add scooped tamarillo flesh to yogurt, spread it over toast with cream cheese, or drop it into a smoothie or juice for a tart, tropical boost that plays beautifully against sweeter fruits like banana and mango.

This box brings you fresh golden berries in your choice of 6 or 12 crates. Each berry arrives tucked inside its papery husk, a natural wrapper that peels back to reveal a glossy, marble-sized orange fruit. The golden berries taste like a tangy mix of pineapple and mango with a hint of tartness and a citrusy finish, and Physalis peruviana, as the fancy scientists call it, is actually a cousin of the tomatillo rather than a true berry. To eat them, slip off the husk, give the berries a quick rinse, and pop them in your mouth whole. They are just as happy scattered over yogurt or fruit salad as they are eaten by the handful. Every order ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your golden berries arrive plump, bright, and ready to enjoy.

We have Sapodilla! After a crazy season, we were able to get our hands on a small batch of the ever-popular Sapodilla, also called Nispero, Chico Fruit, Zapote, Zapotillo, and Tree Potato, which curiously, tastes nothing like a potato. As a matter of fact, comparing this fruit to a potato is our new apples and oranges. So, from now on, to show that you are an Exotic fruit connoisseur, you'll say while slightly elevating your nose, it's like Sapodillas and Potatoes. People might look at you funny but Tropifruiters and the Fruitarians are going to revere you, but I digress... What does it taste like? This is definitely a dessert fruit, it's very sweet and has oaky, light molasses notes, and the flavor of brown sugar and roasted sweet potato. You can just chill it and eat it with a spoon, it's that good! The Sapodilla is a close cousin of the Mamey Sapote, Canistel, and Caimito, also known as Star Apple. Some of our very favorites. This is a very special fruit, the skin is light brown and the flesh has a beautiful golden brownish caramel color that reminds me of the sands of the Sahara. You know it's ripe when it's starting to soften and gives slightly to the touch. You know, it feels soft without being overly soft. When it's ready, pounce! You don't want to let this one pass you by. Life is too short. The  small box contains 3 lbs, Regular box contains 5 pounds of Sapodilla and the large box has 8 pounds. **Sorry California not allowed into your state.**

By popular demand, here it is, the almighty lime! Funny story, in some countries they call them lemon because this is the most popular variety that everyone consumes. That's why when you are drinking that margarita, you'll most likely get a lime wedge but I digress. We love everything about limes, the flavor, the nutrients and how they pack that Vitamin C punch. The juice of 5 limes will take care of the recommended Vitamin C for a whole day, they are known to prevent kidney stones and help to absorb iron. Order Your Tropical Lime Box Today

Look for that smooth, thin skin you can nick with a fingernail, then grate, slice, or mince your way through curries, stir fries, teas, and juices.

Malanga Lila is a beautiful root vegetable. Delicious, starchy and with a down to earth taste. How do you eat Malanga Lila? You boil it, fry it, bake it, add it to hearty soups like Sancocho, puree it, mash it, whip it and make some of the most delicious fritters that will make you ponder about your relation to food and how you could have missed this all your life. Although some people think they are like potatoes, we think they are way better and taste more sophisticated.When you look at a malanga for the first time, they are not the best looking of roots. The skin is hairy and bumpy and not very nice looking but once you peel it and cook it, the flesh turns creamy and delicious with a beautiful purplish, reddish color that will mute down to a grayish color when fully cooked.

Fresh Mangosteen (Manggis Fruit) Mangosteen has been called the queen of fruits for centuries, partly for its regal purple rind and partly because Queen Victoria was rumoured to offer titles to anyone who could deliver fresh mangosteen to her table. We can confirm the fruit is special; we cannot offer knighthoods. Crack open the reddish-purple rind and you find a flower-shaped cluster of creamy white flesh with a flavor profile that splits the difference between lychee, strawberry, and peach. Manggis fruit (the Indonesian name) is native to Southeast Asia and now ships to the U.S. in limited windows. Each fresh mangosteen fruit box contains 3, 5, or 7 pounds of hand-picked purple mangosteen, sourced through our partners and air-shipped to Miami before going out to your door.
