January 17, 2018 - Ripe and Delicious Avocado 'Cuke'


an avocado cuke is an avocado which hasn't developed its seed. It tastes the same, is tiny and ripens a couple of months earlier than the fully developed fruit. I've had both 'cukes' and a fully fertilized fruit on the same tree. The trees are still young so every fruit is cherished!

Delicious avocado 'cuke', nutty flavour, buttery texture, thin skinned, Salt Spring grown! Yum!
