The white zapote is a spherical fruit about 12 cm tall. The ripe skin is greenish-yellow, smooth and shiny. The skin is best not eaten because of its bitter taste. The flesh contains a number of seeds and is white or yellowish. The flavour is sweet or sweet-sour, with a hint of vanilla, banana and peach.
