Fun Fact: Atemoya is considered an ancient food from the Incas in South America!
Atemoya, native to Central and South America, especially countries like Brazil, Colombia, and Ecuador, is a tropical delight. As a fruit sensitive to frost, it thrives in environments with warm temperatures and high humidity, making it a treasured produce in regions of Asia, Africa, and the United States.
The Atemoya boasts a unique, sweet, and creamy flavor reminiscent of a blend between strawberry and pineapple. Its exterior, a green scaly skin, conceals a white custard-like flesh, which is often enjoyed fresh or transformed into jams, jellies, and ice creams.

Atemoya Ripening Pro Tips
An Atemoya is ripe when it feels soft to touch, leaving an imprint upon pressure. Its skin may shift from green to yellow, or even black when cold, yet this doesn't compromise the fruit's quality. The ideal way to savor it is to break it open and relish the white flesh. However, it's crucial to avoid consuming the seeds inside.
