25.01.2022 Its a beautiful day at John and Wendys farm, and these two tawny frogmouths are silently guarding the orchard. John and Wendys harvest has just begun, and they are sending the first fruit of the season to Sydney. Ring your local greengrocer to add them to your fresh fruit order so you dont miss out! #freshfruit #custardapples #antioxidant #vitaminC #greengrocer #healthy

24.01.2022 The Sweet Nature Test Kitchen (a.k.a. farmhouse) has been busy this week with experiments in cooking with seasonal produce - custard apples, oranges and lemons, and blueberries. And since Spring is nearly here, that means the swimming season (think swimming cozzies) is coming up if were allowed out of isolation to go to the beach that is. So, maybe we should hedge our bets, and make comfort food that is delicious and healthy and yet will help with getting rid of the winter muffin top. We should call them Tarts for the Soul.

24.01.2022 We love local greengrocers! They're all doing their part to help keep Australia healthy.

20.01.2022 In case you want to change things up a bit with the way you eat your Custard Apples...... mmmm Enjoy!

19.01.2022 Gerard has been hard at work on his farm in the Northern Rivers, picking custard apples to send to market. He thought you might like to know more about them, like where and how to buy them, store them, eat them. Can you give Gerard a "yes" if youre interested in knowing more about custard apples? #custardapples #health #immunitybooster #Sydneyfruitmarkets #melbournefruitmarkets #aussiefarmer #australiangrown

19.01.2022 Can you tell the difference between these two varieties of custard apples? One is a Pinks Mammoth and one is an African Pride.

18.01.2022 Beautiful fruit ready to harvest & coming to a store near you! #sweetnature #jadefruit #custardapple #australiangrown #farmfresh #australianfresh #aussiegrown

18.01.2022 How dreamy does this custard apple look! When buying fruit in store, go for ones that are pale green, and are firm to touch. Youll know theyre ready to eat when they give to gentle pressure : J E Tipper

18.01.2022 Custard apples in The Garden Of Eden. Are they ready to pick? One is, but it can wait a couple of days. #custardapples #immunitybooster #carpetpython #australianfarmers #health

15.01.2022 What would you think about making some Custard Apple Berry Muffins to warm up the kitchen during these chilly days? The delightful Dani Stevens from NSW Northern Rivers created this original recipe for us, and it looks and sounds amazing. Thanks Dani.

14.01.2022 This looks like a great recipe to make this weekend.....

14.01.2022 While picking custard apples, growers sometimes find little surprises in the trees. Luckily for this baby wood pigeon inside its nest here, Wendy wont have to pick this tree for another week or so.

14.01.2022 Thanks to All Aussie Farmers! We are so happy that our customers are enjoying the fruit.

14.01.2022 The legendary Maggie Beer shares a recipe for one of her favourite desserts for cool nights - Custard Apple Crumble With Lemon Myrtle Anglaise. #comfortfood #healthy #custardapples #melbmarketepping #sydneymarkets #abetterchoiceaus

13.01.2022 We have lift-off! The NSW Sweet Nature custard apple season has just started. Claire and Sheila, who are sisters from Jiggi, sent off their first boxes of custard apples for the season. They are the first growers from the Sweet Nature group to send fruit to market. Congratulations to Claire and Sheila! Yes, this photo has been photoshopped - (we don't want you thinking we send our fruit by hot air balloon), but there will be real photos to come soon.

12.01.2022 We are excited to say that most of the Sweet Nature growers from Northern NSW have started harvest, and are now sending custard apples to Sydney and Melbourne. Ring or visit your greengrocer and add them to your weekly shopping. #healthy #immunitybooster #custardapple #delicious #Sydneyfruitmarkets #Melbournefruitmarkets

12.01.2022 Casual autumn days, meals on the verandah, birds chirping and kids helping with the cooking. Perfect! Our easy lunch recipe, co-created and named by some of the Sweet Nature kids is called Baked Potatoes With Creamy Dreamy Custard Apple Dressing. It goes like this: Mix one cup of custard apple flesh (seeds removed) with one cup of firm natural yoghurt, 1 or two cloves of garlic and a sprinkle of salt. Place generous dollops onto hot, baked potatoes and garnish with a few chives. Serve with love. #livingthedream #styledbyasixyearold #FreshProduce #SweetNature #MelbourneFruitMarkets #SydneyFruitMarkets

09.01.2022 Custard apple and lemons make an amazing combination in a healthy and fresh take on a classic no-bake cheesecake. One large-ish custard apple provides almost enough sweetness to balance two lemons! If you want the recipe, let us know! #LowGI #healthydessert #custardapple #immunitybooster #beautyfood #fruitshop

09.01.2022 Happy Easter! We hope everyone has a fabulous day #jadefruit #sweetnature #freshfruit #australiangrown #happyeaster #immunebooster #goodforyou

08.01.2022 Have you ever bought a beautiful big custard apple, and then let it go past its peak? Youll be happy to know that theres no need to waste it. You can cook something special like Custard Apple and Rhubarb Crumble. Its perfect comfort food for a family, and the custard apple sweetens the rhubarb without the need for sugar. Here is the recipe that goes with the picture..... Ingredients-... A bunch of rhubarb and one large custard apple for the base. Half a cup of dried cranberries for the middle. Half a cup of sugar, half a cup of flour, half a cup of walnuts, half a cup of coconut flakes, 75-ish grams of butter, a good shake or two of cinnamon for the crumble. How to make it - For the base: remove the leaves and strings from the rhubarb, and discard. Chop the stems into lengths of about 2-3 cm. Place in a saucepan with about half a cup of water, and bring to the boil. Simmer for a couple of minutes and leave to cool. While the rhubarb cools, remove the custard apple seeds and discard them. Drain the rhubarb, and the custard apple pulp. (If you mix the rhubarb juice with the custard apple juice, it makes a delicious pink drink.) Mix the rhubarb and custard apple together and place in a medium to large buttered baking dish. Sprinkle the cranberries onto this mixture. For the crumble - Place flour, sugar and cinnamon in a bowl with the softened butter. Rub the butter through until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add the walnuts and coconut flakes. Sprinkle evenly over the custard apple, rhubarb and berry base. Bake in a moderate oven for 45 minutes. Serve with whipped cream. #healthy #custardapple #custardapplerecipe #comfortfood #greengrocer #fruitshop #melbmarketsepping #sydneyfruitmarket

06.01.2022 Sounds good..... great weekend treat!

06.01.2022 In the Sweet Nature test kitchens - a.k.a. the farmhouse kitchens, we look forward to cooking with custard apples. This Custard Apple Pudding is easy, healthy and so tasty. Simply mix one large custard apple (take the seeds out first), four eggs, a drop of vanilla and a good shake of both nutmeg and cinnamon. Pour into a buttered dish with a handful of dried fruit. Bake in a moderate oven for about 40 minutes. Serve hot with whipped cream. #healthy #melbfruitmarkets #sydneyfruitmarkets #greengrocers #fruitshop #nutrition #custardapple #wellness #fitness
