Baby Pineapple

The baby pineapple (also called mini pineapple or dwarf pineapple) is a decorative and tasty miniature version of the pineapple. She is only about 10 cm tall.

Origin

South Africa, Mauritius.

Taste

The flesh is particularly juicy and very sweet.

Use

Due to its aromatic taste, it is advisable to eat the sweet flesh of the baby pineapple raw and not to make it into a dessert. To do this, cut open the baby pineapple from below through the tuft and divide these halves again. The small, soft stalk of the resulting quarters can even be eaten without any problems. The baby pineapple can also be used very well for decorative purposes.
