Velvet Tamarind - FRESH FRUIT

Velvet Tamarind – Sweet, Tangy & Intensely Moreish Velvet Tamarind (Dialium spp.) is a very small tropical fruit with a thin, brittle shell and a distinctive layer of dark, velvety pulp surrounding the seed. Despite the name, it is not the same as ordinary tamarind—the flavour is typically sweeter, more concentrated, and easier to snack on straight from the shell. Why You’ll Like Velvet Tamarind: Sweet & Tangy Flavor: A concentrated balance of sweetness and acidity, with notes reminiscent of tamarind, dried plum, and caramel. Unique Velvet-Like Pulp: The flesh forms a thin, soft coating around the seed, giving the fruit its characteristic dry, slightly powdery texture. Naturally Snackable: Crack the shell, remove the fruit, and suck or scrape the pulp from around the seed. Bold, Concentrated Taste: Small fruit, but surprisingly intense in flavour—especially appealing if you enjoy tamarind, sour candy, or dried fruit. Perfect Ripeness Guide: Ripe fruits have a dry, brittle shell that cracks easily and pulp that has developed its characteristic sweet-tart flavour. Best Enjoyed Fresh: Eat directly from the shell, or use the pulp in drinks, syrups, sauces, and preserves. Each Velvet Tamarind is carefully selected for ripeness and flavour so you can experience this distinctive tropical fruit at its best. Stock is limited—Order your Velvet Tamarind now.
