Thriving in hot and humid conditions, baby pineapples, also known as 'Queen Victoria’s Pineapples', are a tropical treasure. These exotic fruits measure about 13 cm long and 7.5 cm wide, making them a smaller yet equally delightful version of their larger fruit counterparts. Their flavour is a perfect balance of sweet and tart, delivering a burst of tropical freshness in every bite. The golden-yellow flesh is tender, juicy and less fibrous than regular pineapples, making it ideal for eating raw or incorporating into dishes.
