About Grumixama

Grumixama is a Brazilian fruit, also called Brazilian cherry, that grows on an evergreen tree. The round fruits are typically dark purple to nearly black when ripe, with glossy skin and juicy, soft flesh surrounding one or more seeds. Their flavour is often described as sweet-tart and aromatic, though it can vary with ripeness and the particular fruit.

The fruit is eaten fresh and may also be used in juices, preserves, and other preparations. It is generally encountered as a fresh, perishable fruit rather than as a standardized processed ingredient. The skin and seeds are part of the intact fruit but are not always eaten, so edible-portion descriptions should make clear whether they include them.
