About Mangaba

Mangaba is a tropical fruit native to Brazil, with a rounded or oval shape and a thin yellowish skin that may show red markings when ripe. Its soft, pale pulp surrounds seeds and has a notably fragrant, sweet-tart flavour. The ripe fruit is delicate and is commonly gathered for prompt use.

It is eaten fresh or made into juice, ice cream, preserves, and other sweets. It may also be sold as frozen pulp for processing. Nutrition comparisons should identify whether the sample is fresh fruit or separated pulp, and whether a processed product contains added sugar or other ingredients.
