UNIQUELY DELICIOUS FRUIT
The taste of pawpaw is hard to describe but so delicious. Some say it tastes like mango, banana or pineapple but it’s uniquely tropical in flavor. The pulp ranges in color from light yellow to deep orange and has a custard-like consistency.
Pawpaw fruit is born in clusters of one to seven fruit. The fruit is ripe on the tree when its soft to the touch (like an avocado) and if picked from the tree too early, it will not ripen. Fresh pawpaws spoil fairly quickly - in about five days - but the pulp freezes well.
We sell frozen pawpaw pulp in one pound bags. We remove the seeds, process the pulp to an even consistency, and freeze the pulp. Frozen pulp should be thawed in the refrigerator and used within two days.
