Babacos

Babacos are tropical fruits that belong to the papaya family. They have an elongated, pentagonal shape and a smooth, yellow-green skin when ripe. The flesh is soft, juicy and has a fresh, sweet and sour taste that is often compared to a mix of strawberry, pineapple and papaya. Babacos do not contain seeds, making them easy to eat. They are usually eaten fresh or used in juices, smoothies and desserts.
