ORGANIC CHERIMOYAS FROM GRANADA - 4.5 kilos
Origin Spain
Shipped directly from the supplier: faster, fresher, less breakage in transit!
Shipping costs are added automatically in your basket. The price stays the same whatever the number of boxes ordered.
🤍 The cherimoya (or chirimoya) has creamy, sweet white flesh reminiscent of ice cream! You eat it straight from the spoon, after removing the few large, clearly visible black seeds. Its taste is completely unique; it is considered by many to be one of the best fruits in the world.
Harvested at physiological maturity by our new partner Iulian, based on the Spanish Costa Tropical.
To withstand transport, the fruit is delivered still firm and will be ready to eat a few days after receipt.
Storage: a few days at room temperature until ripe. Once ripe (slightly soft flesh): 7 days in the fridge.
🤍 What cherimoya contains (values per 100 g, full table in the PRACTICAL INFO tab):
1 - Carbohydrate: cherimoya contains 17.7 g of carbohydrate per 100 g, of which 12.9 g sugars, and provides 75 kcal (314 kJ) per 100 g. Ideal for a snack, in slices in a dish or simply with a spoon.
2 - Vitamin C: 12.6 mg per 100 g, i.e. 16% of the reference intake. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
3 - Fibre: 3 g per 100 g.

Direct supply chain from Andalusia
We could not be more direct from this producer in Granada, Spain! Iulian Pescara took over the family business in 2018. 2 generations have followed one another in organically farming the various fields of avocados, mangoes and pomegranates and other local, seasonal exotic fruits, all of excellent quality and brought to perfection by the sun of southern Spain.
The cherimoyas come in 4.5-kilo boxes, with recycled cardboard padding.
Shipping is direct from Malaga, from the producer, by GLS. Once your parcel has been dispatched, delivery to your home takes 2/3 working days (non-contractual). You will receive an email from the carrier GLS informing you that your parcel has been sent, with a tracking link.
If you order just one box of fruit, shipping included, no shipping costs are added to your order. If you order other products from our shop, you will also have to pay the standard delivery charges for your other products: one parcel will leave from Marseille and another from Malaga. Arrives in 2 separate parcels.
No pick-up points. No delivery to Switzerland.

Indicative average values for raw cherimoya, flesh only (source: USDA FoodData Central, "Cherimoya, raw", FDC ID 173953).

Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my cherimoya is ripe?
By touch, like an avocado: the flesh should give slightly under gentle pressure from your thumb, without being soft or collapsing. As long as it is firm, leave it at room temperature for a few days. Once ripe, into the fridge it goes, where it keeps for around 7 days.
Can you eat the skin and seeds of the cherimoya?
No: only the white flesh is eaten. The skin is not eaten, and the large black seeds must be removed with the spoon as you go, without being bitten or swallowed. It is a simple habit, the same as for many exotic fruits with seeds.
How do you eat a cherimoya?
The simplest way: cut it in half and eat the flesh straight from the spoon, removing the seeds as you go - a little like a kiwi or an avocado. Its creamy texture, close to an ice cream or a custard, also makes it an excellent ingredient for a smoothie or a raw dessert.
What is the cherimoya season in Spain?
The chirimoya of the Costa Tropical of Granada-Malaga, the only region in Europe to produce it on this scale and protected by a designation of origin (PDO), is harvested mainly from November to April, the harvest being entirely by hand. It is an autumn and winter season, unlike most of the summer fruits in our catalogue.
How many cherimoyas in a 4.5 kg box?
Around 10 to 15 fruits, for an average weight of around 250 g depending on the sizes in the harvest (the fruits can range from 200 g to 500 g). We do not sort by size: the box leaves just as it comes out of the orchard.
Is cherimoya suitable for pregnant women?
Cherimoya is generally well tolerated during pregnancy, as part of a varied and balanced diet. As with any food, if in doubt or in case of a particular condition, ask your doctor or midwife for advice.

A varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are important. The nutritional information mentioned in the COMPOSITION tab is to be understood in that context, and not as an isolated effect of the fruit.
