Star Apple Tropical Fruit – Delivered Across Canada

Enjoy sweet creamy flesh with soft tropical aroma. Fresh Star Apple arrives smooth, glossy, and ready to cut.

Why Choose Star Apple

Star Apple, also called Caimito, is a round tropical fruit with glossy purple or green skin. When sliced, the flesh forms a natural star pattern. The pulp tastes sweet and silky with gentle tropical notes. The skin stays firm while the inside softens as it ripens.

Taste and Texture

Star Apple tastes sweet with hints of lychee and pear. The pulp is creamy and jelly-like. The aroma is floral and mild. The skin is not eaten.

Sourced From Trusted Farms

We source from Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and Vietnam. Growers handpick fruit when the flesh turns soft but holds shape. Cold-chain shipping protects freshness during transport to Canada.

Star Apple fits Canadian lifestyles. Use it for chilled snacks, fruit boards, smoothies, and dessert bowls.
