Soursop | Guanabana Fruit Box
from $109.00
$119.00
Guanabana Fruit
Soursop fruit, guanabana, graviola: three names for the same exotic fruit, depending on which country your kitchen learned its tropical recipes from. Tropical Fruit Box carries soursop year-round when supply allows, sold by weight in 3, 5, and 8-pound boxes because every guanabana fruit grows to its own irregular shape and size. 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?
Hand-handled and shipped the same day it arrives in our Miami warehouse, with the Arrive Fresh Guarantee covering every soursop fruit box.
Soursop sourced direct from family farm partners across Central America, South America, and the Caribbean, with biweekly air shipments to Miami during peak season.
Free U.S. shipping on every soursop box, available in 3, 5, or 8-pound sizes to match how much guanabana fruit you actually plan to use.
Tropical Fruit Box was built so families across the U.S. could buy soursop and other rare tropical fruits direct from the same farms that supply major retailers.

This cocoa box brings you fresh cacao fruit in Regular (4 count) and Large Box (6 count) quantity options. We source ours from trusted growers in tropical growing regions. Every order ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your cacao pods arrive whole, heavy, and ready to open.
Scientists call it Theobroma cacao, which translates to food of the gods, a name the Olmecs would have appreciated 3,500 years ago. Crack open the thick shell and you find rows of seeds wrapped in white pulp that tastes nothing like chocolate: zingy, sweet, and tart, with citrusy mango and pineapple notes. Suck the pulp from each seed, and notice how the bitter bean underneath carries the raw taste that becomes chocolate.

Best Ways to Enjoy Cacao Fruit
Fresh Pulp Straight from the Pod
Split the ripe pod with a sturdy knife, twist it open, and lift out sections of seeds wrapped in white pulp. Pop a section in your mouth and enjoy the tangy, tropical flesh, then set the seed aside.
Blended into Cacao Juice and Smoothies
Massage the pulp-covered seeds in cold water, strain, and you have cacao juice, a frothy tropical drink with bright fruity flavor. The strained pulp also blends beautifully into smoothies alongside banana or mango.
A Chocolate Tasting Experience at Home
Open a pod with friends and compare the fruity flavor of cacao pulp against a nibble of the bitter raw seed, the very thing chocolate makers ferment and roast. It turns dessert night into a hands-on lesson in where chocolate begins.
A Natural Pick for Chocolate Lovers
Anyone who has ever asked where can you buy cacao in its original form will love meeting chocolate at the source. It is a memorable gift for bakers, those who want to try to make chocolate from scratch, and curious foodies who want the full story in their hands.

The fruit runs smaller than red varieties, wearing bright golden skin around translucent white flesh dotted with crunchy edible black seeds.
Dragon fruit grows on a cactus native to Mexico and Central America, and this golden cousin earns its reputation as the connoisseur's pick.

Blended into Naturally Sweet Smoothies
Yellow dragon fruit sweetens smoothies all on its own. Blend the flesh with banana and a splash of coconut water for a tropical drink that needs no honey or added sugar, just ripe fruit doing the work.
A Natural Pick for Anyone Who Found Dragon Fruit Bland

Tropical Avocado Box
from $49.00
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.
Mamey Fruit Box
from $89.00
Mamey is the big, brown-skinned sapote with sweet orange-red flesh that tastes like sweet potato meets pumpkin pie, grown in Florida and shipped fresh to your door.
Fresh Mamey Fruit From Florida Farms
This box brings you fresh mamey fruit in an 8 or 12 pound order, and these red mamey sapote are grown right here in Florida and tend to run huge. Under the thick, semi-rough brown skin sits dense, creamy flesh in shades of orange to salmon-red, with a fine, smooth texture and a flavor people compare to sweet potato, pumpkin, honey, and a touch of cinnamon. It is rich enough to eat with a spoon straight from the skin and even better blended into a classic mamey shake or batido.
Just do not confuse it with black sapote, which is a different fruit altogether. We created this box because so many people kept asking where to buy mamey online, and ours comes from the same family farms our growers have tended for decades. Every mamey delivery is backed by our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your fruit arrives ready to ripen on the counter.
Why Choose Mamey from Tropical Fruit Box?
• Freshness Guaranteed: Your mamey arrives firm and ready to ripen, with dense orange-red flesh at its peak, backed by our Arrive Fresh Guarantee.
• Sourced Direct: Grown on Florida family farms our growers have worked for generations, picked large and at proper maturity.
• Free Shipping on Every U.S. Order: Delivered straight to your doorstep with no minimums and no added fees.
• Women-Powered, Family-Driven: Mamey earned its own box because customers kept asking for it, and it has always been part of our founder's Cuban-American table.
Best Ways to Enjoy Mamey
Mamey Shakes and Batidos
Fresh mamey fruit is made for a creamy shake. Its dense, smooth flesh blends with milk and ice into the thick batido found in Cuban cafeterias, no sweetener needed thanks to its natural sweetness.
Spooning Straight From the Skin
Ripe mamey is ideal eaten fresh with a spoon. Slice it open, lift out the large seed, and scoop the soft orange-red flesh, a simple way to enjoy mamey sapote at its peak.
Cuban and Caribbean Kitchens
Mamey is a staple for cooks bringing tropical flavor home, from ice creams to milkshakes to desserts. Its pumpkin and honey notes carry the taste many grew up with across Cuba and the Caribbean.
First-Time Tropical Eaters
Mamey fruit suits anyone new to tropical produce who wants something rich and approachable. Its familiar sweet-potato and pumpkin-pie flavor makes it an easy, rewarding first step beyond everyday fruit.
Tropical Fresh Papaya Box
from $89.00
Who doesn't love papaya? This is one of my favorite fruits, especially during this time of the year. Papaya is also called Papaw or Pawpaw, they are sweet and delicious.
Why You'll Love Tropical Papayas
If you’ve never had them, they have a cantalopish/mangoish taste mix. Sounds weird, but it's actually pretty amazing. You can cut these Papayas with a butter knife, if you dice them into small chunks, they melt in your mouth. You can also make some mean smoothies with these.

Premium Tropical Golden Pineapple Box
$59.00
The mighty Golden Pineapple needs no introduction. Also called ananas, believe it or not, it's native to South America. The Europeans called it Pine-Apple because to them, it resembled a pine cone. Pineapples are exotic fruits although they are so common that we don't consider them as such anymore.
Delight in the taste of the tropics with our Golden Pineapple Fruit Box. This cheerful box is filled with bright and flavorful golden pineapples, grown in warm tropical climates. The pineapples are picked at the peak of ripeness to ensure that they are as sweet and juicy as can be.
These pineapples have an amazing flavor profile. They are sweet, juicy, and refreshing. If you are looking for the Pinkglow™ Pink Pineapple, you have the wrong box. These golden pineapples are delicious but are definitely not pink.
The textured, rough rind is a rich golden brown color, and the flesh inside is a beautiful, bright yellow. These pineapples are so fragrant and intensely sweet, with just a touch of acidity. You'll be transported to a tropical paradise with every bite!
Our Premium Tropical Golden Pineapple Fruit Box makes a wonderful gift for any occasion, or a delicious treat for yourself. Order today and enjoy the sweetness of the tropics!
What's in the Tropical Golden Pineapple box?
The box contains 4 large Golden Pineapples.
All this is great but the reality is that these pineapples are delicious, are pretty huge, fresh, and especially hard to find at the moment. Get them while you can.
Fresh Tropical White Guava Box (Thai Guava)
from $69.00
Our Fresh White Guavas, also called Thai Guavas are one of our most requested fruits. They are about the size of a baseball, have a bumpy edible green skin and they are pretty delicious. They are not as sweet as our pink guavas but hey, everyone likes what they like.
Guavas are high on Vitamins A, C and are a traditional remedy for a number of ailments but that's just one big bonus. Eat one and you'll understand.
**Cannot ship to California due to import restrictions**

***Cannot ship to California***
Turmeric Box
$59.00
This box brings you 3 pounds of fresh turmeric root, the little jewel behind curry's golden color. Under the thin brown skin waits bright orange flesh with an earthy, peppery-sweet flavor and a citrusy edge that ground powder only hints at. Like its cousin ginger, turmeric is a rhizome, and the two prep the same way: scrape the skin off with a spoon, then grate or slice into curries, soups, rice, smoothies, teas, and golden lattes.
A word to the wise: fresh turmeric stains hands and cutting boards, so gloves and a squeeze of lemon are your friends. Every order ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your turmeric root arrives firm, fragrant, and vividly orange inside.
Why Choose Turmeric Root from Tropical Fruit Box?
• Freshness Guaranteed: Your turmeric arrives firm and fragrant with that vivid orange interior at full strength, backed by our Arrive Fresh Guarantee: get it fresh or we'll make it right.
• Sourced Direct: We source our turmeric root from trusted growers in tropical growing regions and ship it soon after harvest, when the aroma is at its peak.
• Free Shipping on Every U.S. Order: Delivered straight to your doorstep with no minimums and no added fees.
• Women-Powered, Family-Driven: Tropical Fruit Box is a women-powered small business in Miami, and turmeric root joined our lineup because our Tropifruiters kept asking us to carry the fresh root.
Best Ways to Enjoy Turmeric Root
Grated into Curries and Rice
Fresh turmeric is the heart of countless curries. Peel and grate a thumb-sized piece into curries, stews, lentils, rice, and everyday cooking, where it brings its earthy warmth along with that unmistakable golden color.
Steeped into Teas and Golden Lattes
Simmer a few slices of fresh turmeric root in water for a warming tea, or blend grated turmeric into steamed milk with honey for a golden latte that beats any cafe version you have tried.
Blended into Smoothies and Juices
A small knob of fresh turmeric gives smoothies and juices an earthy, peppery lift. Pair it with mango, pineapple, or carrot and ginger, which flatter its flavor without letting it take over the glass.
A Natural Pick for Fresh Ginger Fans
If fresh ginger already lives on your counter, turmeric root is its natural neighbor. The two rhizomes share the same prep, the same storage, and a love of teas and curries, and they are even better together.
Tropical Ginger Box
from $59.00
This box brings you fresh tropical ginger in your choice of 3, 5, or 8 pound sizes. We source our ginger from partner farms in Ecuador and Costa Rica, where the roots grow plump, juicy, and wonderfully fragrant. The flavor is spicy, sweet, and pleasantly sharp, and these roots are so fresh they still snap when you bend them.
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. Like its cousin turmeric, ginger is technically a rhizome rather than a fruit, which is a fancy way of saying all the flavor grows underground. Every order ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your tropical ginger arrives firm, fragrant, and ready to use.
Why Choose Tropical Ginger from Tropical Fruit Box?
• Freshness Guaranteed: Your ginger arrives plump, juicy, and fragrant, with roots that snap cleanly when bent, backed by our Arrive Fresh Guarantee: get it fresh or we'll make it right.
• Sourced Direct: We get our ginger from partner farms in Ecuador and Costa Rica, harvested at its peak so the flavor stays spicy, sweet, and sharp.

Best Ways to Enjoy Tropical Ginger
Grated into Curries and Stir Fries
Fresh ginger is the backbone of kitchens around the world. Grate or mince it into curries, stir fries, marinades, and sauces, where its spicy-sweet sharpness wakes up everything from roasted vegetables to seafood.
Steeped into Teas and Juices
Slice a few coins of fresh ginger into hot water for a warming tea, or run a knob through your juicer with citrus and greens. That pleasantly sharp bite carries beautifully into drinks of every kind.
Baked into Sweets and Desserts
Fresh ginger brings a warmth to baking that ground ginger cannot match. Fold it into gingerbread, cookies, and cakes, or simmer it into syrups for desserts and homemade ginger ale that tastes like the real thing.
A Thoughtful Gift for Cooks and Juicers
A box of fresh tropical ginger makes one of the more original ginger gifts for the cooks, tea drinkers, and juicing devotees in your life. It is useful, fragrant, and far more memorable than another kitchen gadget.
Banana Bonanza Box
$89.00

Think about it, most people haven’t given much thought to this but here at Tropical Fruit Box, our staff brainiacs are always thinking about fruit so here goes…ready? The banana, you can eat raw and the plantain, you better cook. Plantains are larger, of much harder consistency, and require preparation although we hear that some people eat the Hawaiian plantain raw, but you know, to each its own. So, without further ado, for all of you plantain and banana lovers, we give you the Banana Bonanza Box! What’s inside? Manzano Apple Bananas, Red Bananas, and Burro Plantains. Here is a little about each.
Manzano Apple 🍌Banana Cluster - These are like mini bananas that taste like a cross between an apple and a banana and believe it or not, are one of the most popular dessert fruits in the world.
Red Bananas - No, they are not angry, they are just a little blushed. They are sweeter, plumper and some will say have a raspberry-ish finish. They are more pudding-like and have an awesome texture which you should try if you are trying to change things up.
Burro Plantain - This is the powerhouse of cooking plantains. You can use them green or ripe for many dishes. It’s tangier than a regular plantain and when it’s ripe, it’s very creamy and citrusy. Definitely something to live for.
This box has about 8 pounds of bananas and plantains that will help you break the boring meal regime you’ve been keeping in quarantine. We totally feel you.

Inside that shaggy brown skin is bright white flesh with a flavor unlike any other root: nutty and woodsy, with a hint of black walnut and an earthiness that sits somewhere between a potato and yuca. It holds up to almost anything you do with it.
Boil and mash it with garlic and butter, simmer it into a Cuban-style stew, or slice it thin for crisp fritters and chips. Malanga blanca has been a staple in our founder's Cuban-American kitchen since childhood, and it is one of those roots you cook once and keep coming back to. Every order ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your malanga root reaches you firm and ready to cook.

Best Ways to Enjoy White Malanga
Cuban and Caribbean Cooking
Fresh malanga is ideal for traditional dishes like sancocho, ajiaco, and mashed sides. Its starchy, creamy texture after boiling makes it a natural base for the recipes generations of Caribbean cooks have leaned on.
Crispy Fritters and Chips
White malanga fries beautifully, crisping at the edges while staying tender inside. Slice it thin for chips or grate it for fritters and croquettes, a street-food favorite across Cuba and Puerto Rico.
A Potato Alternative
Malanga root works as a swap for potatoes in mashes, soups, and stews, bringing a nuttier, more interesting flavor. Cooks looking to vary a starchy side find it an easy, satisfying change.
Exploring New Roots
Fresh malanga suits anyone curious about tropical roots beyond the supermarket aisle. Its distinct walnut-like taste rewards adventurous home cooks who want to bring something new to the table.
Yuca (Cassava Root) Box
from $59.00
Yuca is the starchy, nutty cassava root at the heart of Caribbean and Latin American cooking, shipped fresh from family farms straight to your door.
Fresh Yuca, the Cassava Root
This box brings you fresh yuca in a 5, 8, or 16 pound order, picked from the family farms our growers have worked for generations. Yuca, the root of the cassava plant, goes by many names, including manioc, mandioca, and macaxeira, and it is a fibrous, starchy staple across the Caribbean, Central America, and South America. The flavor is mild and nutty with a smooth, dense texture once cooked.
The classic preparation is simple: peel it, boil it until tender, then top it with a sofrito of sauteed onions, garlic, and olive oil brightened with sour orange or lemon. From there, yuca cassava turns into fries, mash, fritters, and the base of countless traditional dishes. Cassava yuca root must always be cooked before eating, never raw. Every order of yuca roots ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your fresh yuca arrives firm and ready to cook.

Best Ways to Enjoy Yuca
Classic Boiled Yuca con Mojo
Fresh yuca is ideal for the traditional boiled-and-dressed preparation. Peel and boil the cassava root until tender, then finish it with a garlic, olive oil, and sour orange sofrito for a Caribbean staple side.
Crispy Yuca Fries
Yuca cassava makes fries with a crisp exterior and a fluffy, dense interior. Boil the root first, then fry the pieces until golden for a satisfying alternative to potato fries with a nuttier flavor.
Hearty Soups and Stews
Cassava yuca root is a backbone of sancocho and other tropical stews. Its starchy body thickens the broth and soaks up flavor, anchoring the kind of slow-simmered meals served across Latin America.
A Nutty Potato Alternative
Yuca roots work as a satisfying swap for potatoes in mashes and sides, bringing a nuttier taste and denser texture. Cooks looking to vary a starchy staple find fresh yuca an easy, rewarding change.
