It is a very large fruit, popular in in Tropical American countries. Its fruit has a thin, leathery dark green skin covered with soft spines. Its flesh is white, juicy and aromatic, with a slightly acidic flavour. Guanabanas are about 20 cm (8 ") in long and could weight 250 g (0,5 lb). The fruit is picked before ripening and is available almost all year-round. Annona muricata is widely grown for makling juice for drinks and is also used in desserts as meringues and mousses.
