Star Fruit (Carambola)
Star Fruit (Averrhoa Carambola)
At iHeartFruitBox, we're thrilled to offer Star Fruit, locally sourced from the verdant groves of South Florida. Native to Southeast Asia, this fruit is a true tropical delight with its thin, smooth, and slightly waxy skin.
Star Fruit transforms in color from green to vibrant yellow and orange as it ripens. It's known for its high water content and crunchy texture, offering a tangy yet sweet flavor profile that's reminiscent of citrus with a hint of apple and pear.
Packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, Star Fruit is not only tasty but also nutritious. For the best time to enjoy this exotic fruit, check our SEASONAL GUIDE.
- Our boxes are filled to capacity, respecting the diverse sizes and weights of the Star Fruit.
- Monitor delivery times after ordering, as the fruit ripens rapidly, particularly in warm conditions.
- ORDERS ARE PACKED FOR SHIPPING AT THE START OF THE WEEK FOLLOWING YOUR PURCHASE DATE AND DO NOT SHIP IMMEDIATELY.
