Black sapote is a tropical persimmon relative often called the "chocolate pudding fruit." Every box is picked from our own trees in Merritt Island, Florida.

  • Flavor: Mild and sweet, often compared to chocolate pudding.
  • Texture: Soft, custard-like dark brown flesh when fully ripe.
  • Season: Florida harvest typically runs December–March (FDACS); some trees bear from mid-November into winter.

What's in the box

One 4–5 lb box of black sapote, sold by weight. Fruit size varies, so the number of fruit per box varies.

Shipping

In stock and ready to ship now. Price includes USPS Priority shipping (2–3 days) to the lower 48 states except California. We can't ship to Alaska, Hawaii or U.S. territories.

Ripening tip

Black sapote ships firm and green. Leave it at room temperature until the skin darkens and the fruit feels very soft, like an overripe avocado; that's when the flesh turns to chocolate pudding. Then eat it or refrigerate it for a day or two.
