Fresh Custard Apple (Sitafal) 2pcs is a popular exotic fruit known for its naturally sweet flavour, fragrant aroma and soft, creamy flesh.
Commonly known as Sitafal, Seetaphal or Sharifa in South Asian households, custard apple develops a smooth, custard-like texture as it ripens. This product may also be described as cherimoya, depending on the variety and country of origin.
Allow firm fruit to ripen at room temperature until it gives slightly when gently pressed. Once ripe, wash the outside, cut or pull the fruit open and scoop out the soft white flesh with a spoon.
Only the flesh should be eaten. Remove and discard all black seeds and the outer skin before eating or blending.
Custard apple can be enjoyed fresh as a naturally sweet dessert or added to milkshakes, smoothies, fruit bowls, ice cream, mousse, yoghurt and other sweet recipes.
The two-piece pack is convenient for households, fruit platters, desserts and customers looking for fresh Sitafal or exotic fruit online in the UK.

Only eat the soft inner flesh.
Do not eat or blend:
Remove every seed carefully before preparing milkshakes, smoothies, purées or desserts.
Children should be supervised while eating because the fruit contains multiple hard seeds.

To ripen:
Do not cut the fruit while it is still very hard unless you intend to check its condition.
Store at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
