Casimiroa edulis La Llave - Rutaceae - white sapote, Mexican apple, casimiroa, Weiße Sapote
Evergreen tree, native to Mexico, cultivated in Central America.
„The fruit is an ovoid drupe, 5–10cm in diameter, with a thin, inedible skin turning from green to yellow when ripe, and an edible pulp, which can range in flavor from bland to banana-like to peach to pear to vanilla flan. The pulp can be creamy-white in green skin varieties or a beige-yellow in yellow skin varieties and has a smooth texture similar to ripe avocado.“ wikipedia
Esters were the predominant class of total volatiles (83.1/73.1%; green/ripe) of Casimiroa fruits. The major ester was ethylbutyrate (sweet and fruity; 75.1%/61.5%; green/ripe). Ethyl butyrate and ethanol had the most prominent effect on consumer acceptability of the Casimiroa flavour.
