Black Sapote



This is another South Florida fruit that some people grow in their back yards. The Black Sapote is aka Chocolate Pudding Fruit. The fruit is good to eat when it is overripe, brown, mushy and just about to rot away. Only then it looks but does not taste like choc. pudding. Could that be the reason it is rarely sold in stores? It ripens off the tree. The 2 fruits on the plate are not ready to eat yet, however, made a nice subject to paint.
