Rose Apple

Discover the Wax Apple (also known as Rose Apple), one of the most refreshing delicacies of tropical cuisine. These bell-shaped fruits get their name from their characteristic glossy skin, which appears as though it has been lightly waxed, as well as their delicate, subtle floral note. Taste & Texture The Wax Apple is an excellent thirst-quenching tropical fruit. Its texture is extremely crisp, light and incredibly juicy – somewhat like a combination of a very juicy Nashi pear and watermelon. The flavor is mild, pleasantly sweet and wonderfully refreshing. The thin skin is completely edible and can be enjoyed together with the flesh. Serving & Preparation Traditionally, Wax Apples are simply washed thoroughly, quartered and enjoyed fresh as a refreshing snack. Sliced, they also make an attractive and crunchy addition to summer fruit salads or savory Asian-style salads. Product Details Product: Fresh Wax Apple (Syzygium samarangense) Commercial Name: Fresh Wax Apple Label Synonyms: Rose Apple / Chomphu / Jambu Air Condition: Fresh, whole fruit Packaging: Pre-packed for self-service in a protective film-wrapped tray, helping to protect the fruit's delicate skin.

Because the fruits have very delicate, bruise-sensitive skin, it is best to keep them in their protective packaging in the vegetable compartment of the refrigerator until ready to eat. They taste best when chilled!
