Cactus figs

Ripe, freshly picked fruits, flown in directly from Colombia!

FIG: The desert's thorny treasure

Behind its thorny armor and austere appearance, the prickly pear hides one of nature's
sweetest secrets. This fruit of the cactus, which thrives under the intense sun of arid lands,

announces its maturity with a magical transformation: its skin changes from green to
vibrant shades of orange and red.
Upon opening it carefully, you will discover a juicy, refreshing pulp full of seeds, offering a
flavor that captures the very essence of summer. But its value goes beyond taste: it is a
notable source of antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber, ideal for combating oxidative stress
and strengthening your well-being.
Dare to challenge it: enjoy it fresh, turn it into jams with unique character, or drink it in
revitalizing juices. The fig is not just a fruit; it is a reward for brave palates who know how
to appreciate that the best things in life often come with special protection.

Use

Peel it, but be careful, because it can be prickly, so it is advisable to wear kitchen gloves while doing so. Only the inner flesh is suitable for consumption, so be sure to remove the skin. Cut the peeled fruit into slices and serve as a fruit salad with several other fruits. 

Storage

Store in a dry, cool place, between 10-12 °C.
