USA Premium Tree Ripe Fruit Yellow Plums

Class 1

weighs approx 454gms per box ... The Yellow Plum, also known as Lemon Plum, is a small, round or oval in shape, yellow speciality plum available from South America. The fruit is smaller than a regular plum. Its yellow flesh carries a sweet, juicy taste. Other types of Yellow Plums exist but are available mainly at farmers markets.

The Yellow Plum is a stone fruit derived from the rose family. One of the most popular fresh fruit options on the market, 12.7 million tons of Yellow Plum are produced annually across the globe.

Like other plums, the Yellow Plum is very sweet and has a tart aftertaste due to the skin. The meat of this fruit is firm but easily bitten into. Plums are usually used in recipes that require an added touch of sweetness since they come by it naturally. Adding Plums to any recipe is a great way to cut back on sugar intake but retain that dessert-like sweetness.

When used in things like alcohol or Umeboshi (Japanese salted plums), the taste can change drastically due to how the plums are treated.

 Plums stop producing sugar after they are picked, so unlike other fruits, they won’t grow sweeter as they ripen off of the tree.

 Plums are a very nutritious fruit. Both Plums and Prunes are excellent sources of vitamins, minerals, fibre and antioxidants. Additionally, they have several characteristics that may reduce the risk of many chronic diseases, such as osteoporosis, cancer, heart disease and diabetes 😋💪🏻👍🏻
