Our Love Your Fruit guarantee means 100% of your money back if you’re not as pleased as punch. No questions asked. Piqa Boo is unlike any pear you've tasted before.
Developed in New Zealand by Plant & Food Research, this striking red pear has earned a devoted following for its crisp, juicy bite and sweet tropical flavour - somewhere between a Nashi and something entirely its own.
Available for a very short season only, so get in quick.
Piqa Boo is a genuinely new kind of pear - a complex cross of European, Japanese and Chinese varieties that combines the best of all three into something quite extraordinary.
The skin is a vivid, block red that makes it one of the most visually striking fruits you'll come across. Bite in, and you get a crisp, juicy texture similar to a Nashi, but with a sweet, refreshing flavour that carries hints of coconut, pineapple and a whisper of strawberry. ams pear.
Piqa Boo is ready to eat from the moment it arrives and stays firm and flavourful for weeks. Great eaten fresh, sliced onto a cheeseboard, or paired with blue cheese and walnuts in a salad.
Piqa Boo has exceptional shelf life - one of its standout qualities.
Keep them in the fridge, and they'll stay crisp and fresh for several weeks without softening or losing flavour. They can also be kept on the bench for a week or more. No ripening required - just eat and enjoy.

Your Piqa Boo pears are grown in Hawke's Bay - one of New Zealand's premier growing regions, with the warm summers and cool nights that stone and pip fruit thrive in.
Piqa Boo is a licensed cultivar bred by Plant & Food Research and managed by Prevar, meaning only a select group of growers are licensed to grow it.
Sourced from growers who take real pride in producing this special fruit - and given how sought-after Piqa Boo has become both here and in export markets, that care really shows.
