Sugar apple
A fruit with creamy white flesh, somewhere between custard and pineapple.
The sugar apple, or custard apple (anone), is a round fruit covered in soft green scales. Its white flesh, creamy and sweet, contains large inedible black seeds. Its taste recalls cream, pear and pineapple. It is eaten with a spoon when ripe, when the skin gives slightly. A speciality fruit for desserts.
