Wild sweetsop photography

Wild sweetsop, also known as Annona reticulata or bullock's heart, is a tropical fruit in the Annonaceae family, closely related to custard apple (Annona squamosa) and cherimoya (Annona cherimola). It’s native to the Americas, especially the West Indies and Central and South America, and is now cultivated in tropical regions worldwide. The fruit is typically heart-shaped, which is why it’s sometimes called bullock’s heart, with a rough, textured skin that ranges from green to reddish-brown when ripe. Inside, the pulp is creamy, sweet, and custard-like with a pale yellow to reddish color, containing numerous black seeds.

It has a slightly sweet, custard-like flavor with subtle tropical notes, but it can be somewhat less sweet and more fibrous compared to its relatives. Wild sweetsop is often eaten fresh, but it can also be used in smoothies, desserts, and ice cream. In traditional medicine, various parts of the plant (leaves, bark, and seeds) have been used for ailments due to their antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. This fruit is loved for its unique flavor but is less common than custard apples or cherimoyas in the market due to its firmer texture and slightly grainy pulp.
