Frécinette banana
A small, slender banana, sweet and fragrant, in a bite-sized format.
The Frécinette banana is a small banana a few centimetres long, with thin skin and dense, melting cream-coloured flesh. Sweeter and more fragrant than the standard banana, it develops slightly tangy notes. Its small size makes it ideal for individual presentations, plated desserts and fruit platters.
