This is also called Custard Apple and Guanabana in Puerto Rico. The seedsare poisenous but the flesh is creamy pear banana apple. SO GOOD
Most definitely a delicious! But, “custard apple” is actually called cainito or star apple. It really like a spherical fruit, dark violet with some green or brown tinge skin. The skin of the fruit is smooth and waxy, which is not edible when opening up the fruit, but the flesh is very much creamy and heavenly. A cross between a pear and lychees, its really quite fruit and too bad I can’t take some fresh fruits back:( I can only get some that are frozen in a Latino or Asian supermarket that cost 7 dollars for 4 apples.
Annona muricata; prickly custard apple; soursop; soursop tree (small tropical American tree bearing large succulent slightly acid fruit) I lived in Puerto Rico for a bit and the Guanabana fruit grew out back big green and spiney. White flesh with big black seeds. Google it and you will also see defined as custard apple family.
It certainly is! Though star apples are also a bit interchangeable with the term custard apples, I think both of us kinda confused the two with different fruits. I don’t questions its far different at all, but I’m not surprised that its called a “custard apple” as its flesh is quite creamy and semi solid like custard. All are good eats anyway!
Did we just have a food fight?! Ha! So funny!
