• An all natural product, offered in an attractive 16 ounce jar. The Chilean carica tree looks like an exotic palm tree, but is a giant herb similar to the papaya. It grows only in the north of Chile and lives only six years. It must be picked at the right time and keeps only for a couple days. The fruit has flesh surrounded by seeds that are removed, leaving a nice firm pouch that can be filled, for example, with ice cream or cottage cheese for a delicious dessert. The raw fruit is poached for a few moments and remains firm in the jar.
