This box brings you fresh Ataulfo mangoes in your choice of 8 or 12 pound sizes, grown in Mexico where the variety was born. Slim, golden, and kidney-shaped, the Ataulfo hides buttery, custard-smooth flesh around a thin pit, with none of the stringy fibers that haunt other mangoes. The Ataulfo mango taste runs rich and honeyed with hints of peach, which explains the honey mango nickname.
Judge ripeness by touch: a ripe one gives to a gentle squeeze, and the skin deepens to golden and wrinkles slightly when fully ready. Eat them fresh over the sink, blend them into smoothies, or fold them into salsas and desserts. Every order ships with our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your Ataulfo mangoes arrive unbruised and ready to ripen.

Best Ways to Enjoy Ataulfo Mango
Eaten Fresh at Peak Ripeness
Wait until the skin turns deep golden with slight wrinkles and the fruit gives to a gentle squeeze, then slice and enjoy. At peak ripeness the flesh is so creamy it practically melts in your mouth.
Blended into Smoothies and Lassis
The Ataulfo's smooth, fiber-free flesh makes it the best mango for blending. Drop it into your morning smoothie, or whirl it with yogurt and a pinch of cardamom for a mango lassi worth savoring slowly.
Folded into Salsas and Desserts
Diced Ataulfo mango brings honeyed sweetness to fresh salsas alongside lime, chili, and cilantro. On the sweet side, layer it over cheesecake, churn it into sorbet, or spoon it onto oatmeal and yogurt.
A Natural Pick for Serious Mango Lovers
If the fibrous grocery store mango has ever let you down, Ataulfo mangoes are the sweet remedy. Fans of creamy tropical fruits like papaya and cherimoya will recognize that silky, custard-like satisfaction from the very first bite.
