This is it! We have Soursop! You might know it as Guanabana Fruit or Graviola. Soursop is the ultimate tropical and exotic fruit treasure. Native to Central, South America and the Caribbean, this exotic fruit wonder is one of our most popular fruits. Soursops have very different shapes and sizes that's why we sell it by weight. That said, we always err in your favor. What does Soursop / Guanabana Fruit taste like? If you never had a Soursop you are in for a treat. The flavor profile is a creamy texture that tastes like a combination of pineapple with a hint of strawberry and a sour citrusy note. The creamy texture can be associated with a smashed banana when it's ripe and it's usually eaten with a spoon. Many of our Tropifruiters love to make smoothies or the Brazilian popular drink called champola. Where does our Soursop come from? We get regular Soursop shipments flown in weekly and they sell pretty fast so if you see we don't have it in stock, come back in a few days, especially at the beginning of the week and we usually have it. You'll get it fast! Due to its delicacy, Soursop requires special handling and will be shipped on the day it arrives in its weekly shipment so it can get to you in perfect condition. You don't have to pay extra for this awesome perk. That's why we are the #1 Soursop distributor online.

Mangosteen near me? Yes! Exotic Fruit Lovers rejoice! We’ve got the crown jewel, the queen of all fruits, the elusive, seductive, and much revered purple Mangosteen. It’s said that Queen Victoria would bestow a knighthood to anyone who could get her fresh mangosteen. Since UPS wasn't invented at the time, alas, no titles were granted. The Mangosteen is round and has a reddish-purple rind with a white creamy flower-shaped flesh. The flavor is so unique that it is hard to describe. People who taste these things for a living say it feels like a combination of a Lychee with strawberry and peach notes. It tastes pretty darn special. The rind of the so-called Queen of Fruits and Fruit of the Gods has been used for its medicinal properties for centuries, but the texture and flavor are what truly leave you wanting more. Getting a fresh Mangosteen is a rare privilege that we can provide, no knighthood necessary, thanks to the wonders of online fruit delivery. You are most welcome! Now available in 3 box sizes!

Pink Pineapples are a thing! They are called Pinkglow and we distribute them under an exclusive partnership with Fresh Del Monte. What does the Pinkglow® Pineapple taste like? The flavor is just delicious. They are succulent, sweeter, juicier, and less acidic. Many people taste cotton candy but many of our Tropifruiters are mesmerized by the beautiful pink color. An insta-worthy experience Many top-name chefs, celebrities, and other influencers have ordered the Pinkglow™ pineapple from us and you can tell when they’ve received it because it almost automatically shows up on their Instagram feed. Many of our customers or as we call them, Tropifruiters, confirm that they are definitely a talking piece.They take 20 to 24 months to grow, are harvested by hand in limited quantities in a sustainable carbon-neutral farm in the rich, volcanic soil and tropical climate of Costa Rica. The reason they don’t come with a crown is because the crowns are used to replant them. They are a popular gift but if you really want to impress, you should buy our Pinkglow® Gift Box, it comes in a special box with a certificate of authenticity. So many of you loved them so much and wanted to buy multiple units that we had to make it happen. This product was made possible through bioengineering. This box comes with 2 Pinkglow® Pink Pineapples. Order Today.

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 8 pounds of Cacao Fruits and the large box has 16 pounds of this Food of the Gods. Don’t wait, order your box of Cacao fruit today.  

Dragon Fruit, also called Pitaya or Pitahaya is the fruit of a cactus originally from Mexico and Central America. People describe the flavor as a mix between a pear and a kiwi. Yellow Dragon Fruit is the sweetest variety and most requested by Tropifruiters nationwide. Due to its high demand, we’ve created this box just for Yellow Dragon Fruit lovers. Don't miss this chance, get your Yellow Dragon Fruit box while they last!  

The Spanish Lime also known as Quenepa is a fruit with a thousand names. It’s known as Mamoncillo, Guinep, Limoncillo, Mamón, Jocote, you get the point. Why does it have so many names? We can only guess that every country that has it, likes it so much they want to make it their own. No joke. People are serious about this little fruit! The Puerto Ricans love it so much that they even have a national festival celebrating the Quenepa, which is what they call it in the island of enchantment. Other than it looks similar to a key lime from the outside; the Spanish Lime could not be more different from a citrus fruit. It’s actually a cousin of the Lychee, Rambutan, and Longan, some of Tropical Fruit Box’s fan favorites. What do Spanish Limes taste like? The Spanish Lime tastes like a Lychee that married a lemon but without the high citrus notes. It’s tangy and sweet, with a hint of tamarind and it feels refreshing in your mouth. Perhaps that is why it’s a popular summer beach snack. How do you eat these tasty Quenepas? The skin is a beautiful green that's hard like a shell but not so hard like an egg. When you squeeze it, it cracks open pretty easily. You can cut it with a knife like the civilized person you are, or you can have an adventure and open it by biting down on it which is what we do since this is a beach favorite (don’t tell your dentist). Once the soft shell cracks, remove it and you’ll see the peach-colored translucent orange flesh. Put it in your mouth and chew the flesh off the seed. The flesh is pretty stuck to the seed so you are going to have to work for it. When you are done, get rid of the seed and repeat until you've gone through all of them. When you are done and you just realized that you went through the whole box without sharing it with your loved ones, you can order another box in guilt and repeat the process all over again. Only while they last. What are you waiting for?  Get Your Spanish Limes Today!

Longans are amazing fruits. Have you tried a Dragon eye? Not the real thing, of course, the little fruit that our Tropifruiters go crazy for. Why? Not hard to guess, they are succulent, sweet, and incredibly juicy. When you bite into the translucent flesh, it feels like it melts in your mouth. The longan is a close cousin of the Lychee and the Rambutan but they are really the only ones that look like a real dragon eye. It comes from the Soapberry tree and it's called dragon's eye due to its contrasting white flesh and dark seed. If you haven't tried Longan, you are in for a treat. If you've tried it, you know what you are in for. If you think a whole box of Longan Fruit is too much, you can create your own tropical fruit box and add longan as one of the fruits in your favorite personalized tropical mix. Order your fresh Longan Dragon Eye box today. 

If you've never had Pink Guava, you are definitely in for a mega treat. We love to eat it straight out like an apple but you can slice it and have it with yogurt or as part of a fruit salad. When you open the box, the scent will amaze you and you know, the scent is a huge part of the flavor. It can be eaten in raw form straight or sliced as part of a salad, or even as a pie or pastry filling at your favorite bakery. As the signature flavor for many Hispanic dishes, its popular use is to make jam and sweets which will leave your senses alive and wanting more. What does Pink Guava taste Like? The taste is unique and delicious like a combination between a pear and a strawberry. The fragrance of the guava transports you straight to the tropics so when you get one, before eating it, take a good sniff and you'll see what we are talking about.  **Cannot ship to California due to import restrictions**

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 to 10 Large Tropical Avocados. Our Regular box has 4 Large Tropical Avocados.

The rambutan, also called Ngoh is a tropical fruit native of Asia. The name rambutan comes from the Malay word that means hairy and when you see one, you’ll understand. Once you peel the skin away, you'll see a beautiful white flesh that has a sweet and sour combination that's pretty unique. It's a close cousin of the lychee in flavor profile but the rambutan is sweeter. The Regular Box contains 5 pounds of Rambutan and the Large Box contains 8 pounds!

Mamey Fruit is absolutely delicious! We call it mamey, but it's also called sapote, not to be confused with black sapote, which is a different type of fruit altogether. They are so yummy that it's hard to eat just one.  We had so many requests for Mamey that we had to create a box just for it! These red mamey fruits are from right here in Florida and are humongous!  Mamey sapote is a medium to large fruit with a thick, semi-rough skin that ranges in color from light to dark brown. Underneath the skin, the flesh is soft, creamy, and dense with a fine, smooth consistency. The flesh of Mamey sapote ranges in color from orange, and red, to salmon. Within the center of the flesh, there is one elliptical seed with a glossy, black-brown hue. Don't eat the seed! What does mamey taste like? The flavor of mamey is like a cross between a pumpkin and a sweet potato, with hints of caramel and chocolate. It's truly unlike anything else you've ever tasted! Order a box, have a nice mamey shake, or just eat them with a spoon and if you have a couple left, take the pulp out with a spoon, put them in a freezer bag, and you'll have mamey for a few more times!

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! Order your Breadfruit box today, please note they are not currently mature.

The Jackfruit is the largest fruit in the world. No kidding. Believe it or not, the Jackfruit is a close cousin of the fig and breadfruit. It grows in tropical areas; since we live in one, we can usually procure a few. The Jackfruits are hot. This is one of the hottest "newly discovered fruits" that people are using as a vegan meat replacement because of its meaty texture and excellent neutral flavor that will take the flavor of the sauce or spices you use. So, you ask, where can I find a fresh jackfruit near me? Well, you are in luck because, thanks to the internet and FedEx, you can order a fresh jackfruit, and we ship it right to your door.

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.

According to historians, figs are one of the oldest cultivated fruits in the world and even wars have started over their delicious flavor. For the celebrity buffs, here is a good one for you. Cleopatra, arguably one of the very first celebrities, loved them so much that the snake that took her life was brought to her in a basket of figs. Adam and Eve wore the on trend fashionable fig leaf and Buddha obtained enlightenment under the Bhodi tree, a giant fig tree, presumably by eating one. Egyptian royalty were buried with a basket of fresh figs so they could enjoy them in the afterlife. What do we have in the modern world? Fig Newtons? Time to change that! If you’ve never tasted fresh fit’s, you are just missing out. These are the sweetest and most commonly dried variety because of their unique figgy taste. Hate to be redundant but it’s all about the fig taste, isn’t that why you are getting fresh figs in the first place?  What do Figs taste like?

You’ve requested it and we delivered. We have FRESH Monthong Durian! These things are huge, spiky, and delicious and have been flown directly, fresh, NEVER frozen and shipped to you. If Mangosteen is the Queen of fruits, Durian is without a doubt the King and we are stoked to finally have a limited quantity for our beloved Tropifruiters! If you’ve never had Durian, you need to pause and consider this decision. This is not a fruit for beginners, this is definitely a connoisseur’s fruit. In fruits, just like the food world, caviar is not for everyone. For the experienced, the aroma consists of a pleasantly sweet fragrance. For the untrained, it can be a little overpowering. The taste has been described as a mixture of vanilla, diced garlic with notes of pepper, caramel mixed with whipped cream because of the creamy texture. It has a long finish that will leave the taste in your mouth for a while. Be prepared to be absolutely blown away by this flavor explosion. Who needs fancy molecular gastronomy when you can just eat a piece of Durian? Yes, nature perfected it first. This is the most expensive fruit we’ve ever procured and as always, we guarantee that it will arrive fresh. The 1 Durian box contains (1) Durian weighing about 6 pounds. We repeat, ONE durian. Uno. หนึ่ง (That’s the number one in Thai) The 3 Durian box, contains 3 durians. You see how we make it easy for you? Put on your gloves, cut into it and enjoy, with everything that’s going on in the world, we can only say YOLO!

Red bananas are in! Aren’t you tired of traditional bananas? Well… do we have a contender for you. The beautiful and not boring Red Banana. No, this banana is not angry or blushing, it’s just doing its thing, waiting to be devoured by you! What makes them different? They have a red purplish colored exterior, their flesh color is a little bit darker with an orangish color and they are slightly plumper. Other than that, if you have a sweet tooth, you’ll love them because they are sweeter than their yellow cousins. They are also denser and juicier so we could say that they are more satisfying. Sweet, creamy but not overwhelming. Some say they are like eating a banana soufflé. When do you know they are ripe? The universal banana ripeness indicator is firmness. When they start getting softer and their color lightens, they are good to go. You can definitely eat them by themselves, use them in desserts, and they also make awesome smoothie companions since you can mix them with pretty much anything healthy and they will make it taste better. The proof is in the banana pudding, give them a try and let us know what you think.

What is yellow, crunchy, crisp, and sweet? California Yellow Barhi Dates of course! They sweeten and soften as they ripen and will change color towards a brownish tone.

The season for these beauties is very short so take advantage of this chance to try something uniquely delicious. This box is now available in several sizes for the Yellow Barhi Dates, we'll leave the counting of how many dates per box to our Tropifruiters that moonlight as auditors.

Tamarind fruit is loved all over the world. Growing up, we just knew them as tamarindo fruit, and we thought it only had one flavor. We were so wrong! There are two main varieties of Tamarind, the sour one that makes you feel like you sucked on 100 lemons (the one we knew as kids)  and the sweet tamarind fruit that brings the best of the fruit world in a nicely packaged pod that will take your fruit game to a whole new level. Once you start eating the sweet tamarind, you can’t eat just one; it’s that good! Coming from Thailand, this sweet variety is known as “makham wan” and our Tropifruiters love it for its uniquely complex flavor that leaves you wondering… did nature just overdo itself? That’s a resounding hell yeah! What does Sweet Tamarind fruit taste like? First, you’ll notice its sweetness, it has those brown sugar, and molasses notes perfectly balanced by its tanginess. This complex citrusy undertone, combined with the sweetness, earthy notes, and pulpy, soft, and chewy texture, is nothing less than nature’s candy. The experience of eating sweet tamarind is pretty unique if you’ve never had it. First, you crack the hard shell, then you take out the seed pod covered in the yummy pulp, but before you go crazy, you need to remove the veiny-looking branches that come out easily so you don’t feel you are eating a fishing net. Once that’s done, get ready to smudge your fingers and suck the pulp out of the seeds in a ritual that you’ll perform over and over again until the whole box is gone. We don’t recommend eating all of them in one sitting, but we’ve been known to do just that. How do you eat Tamarind Fruit? You can just eat it straight out, crack the shell, enjoy, and repeat. It’s as yummy as it’s satisfying. Kids love it, and it will keep them busy for a while; just remember to take out the seeds. Use the pulp to make traditional Thai dishes like Tamarind chicken, Pad Thai or add it to your own stir fry or sauces to give them that fancy finish. Go to town with the mixology. Take the pulp and kick up your margaritas or other fancy cocktails that will leave your friends in awe of your newly found mixology skills. Do something fun today. Order your very own box of Sweet Tamarinds and take your culinary and mixology game to a whole new level. No worries, if you are not the elaborate cuisine type, they make an awesome snack or dessert as is!

The Maru Chocolate Persimmon is by far the most exclusive Persimmon variety loved by connoisseurs and those lucky enough to have tasted it. Warning: This persimmon has been known to cause obsession. The skin color is deeper than the traditional Fuyu variety and they are just plain delicious with just enough sweetness but not overwhelming. They are also super juicy and have a nice finish with spice notes. Where does the chocolate reference come from? No, it’s not the chocolatey taste, it’s because the flesh turns brown when they ripen. People think that when the fruit turns brown it’s bad and it applies to most other fruit but not to this very special persimmon, so use this opportunity to broaden your horizons and taste something truly unique. That’s if you are lucky enough to catch them as they are probably going to be selling pretty quickly and their season is also very short!

Corn is just amazing. Also known as Maize, it was domesticated by indigenous people in Mexico over 7,000 years ago and nowadays is one of the most important and essential crops in the United States.  Is Corn a vegetable, a grain, or a fruit? This is a great answer for your trivia games! Corn sometimes is eaten as a grain, sometimes is consumed as a vegetable but the smart people in the botany world, you know, the ones that know about this stuff classify it as a fruit. How about that? This Florida Corn box packs a big punch of sunshine, they are huge, sweet, and super delicious. Get yourself a box and you’ll see for yourself.   ***Please note, that this is not allowed into California.***

White Guavas, Pink Guavas, we think we’ve got you the perfect mix. We love both guavas but as you know, they are different and special in their own ways.White guavas are sweeter and seedier while pink guavas are less starchy and more watery and pulpier. The flavor for both is universally liked and very pleasant. It’s one of those unique tastes that you won’t confuse with anything else. They have strawberry, melon, pear notes with a delicious fragrance that’s just unmistakable. Somebody should really make a guava perfume; we are sure it will win us over for sure!This is also one of the boxes that we’ve created 100% based on our Tropifruter’s feedback. Who knew they wanted a mix between the two guavas? We surely didn’t but our customers have spoken and here we are. Another piece of feedback we incorporated is that we now have more sizes to make it easier to find the perfect size for your needs. Order your Pink and White mixed guava box today and enjoy this wonderful mix.   **this product cannot ship to California due to import restrictions**
