Tamarillos

About Our Tamarillos

Once known as the tree tomato, the Tamarillo is an intense mix of tangy, sweet flesh with a jelly and seed centre (similar to a tomato or feijoa.) 

While they originated in South America, the red Tamarillo was cultivated in New Zealand. Just one tamarillo will ensure you get a whopping 89% of your daily vitamin C requirement! Plus around a quarter of your vitamin A and E needs. What a powerhouse!

Tamarillos can be scooped out and eaten raw, delicious with a little brown sugar. They are incredibly versatile and go well in savoury or sweet dishes. This makes them popular to use in chunky chutneys, relishes, and sauces. Or baked with honey and ricotta. Or baked on top of spiced Autumnal cakes. There are so many options!

Our tamarillos are handpicked, packed and transported with care so they arrive at your door with shiny, smooth, unblemished skins, bursting with flavour and ready to take pride of place in your fruit bowl.

Approximately 9 tamarillos per kg

Storage

Tamarillos store well in the fridge for up to two weeks or keep them in your fruit bowl for about a week. 

They can easily be frozen – either whole (remove the skins first) or pureed.
