Black Sapote

Black Sapote is known as the “chocolate pudding fruit.” This is because it has a dark brown, rich, and creamy interior that looks and kind of tastes like chocolate pudding. The great thing about this fruit is that it is so much healthier than the popular sugary dessert. Black Sapote clocks in at just 130 calories per serving, and a whopping 191 grams of vitamin C. That’s twice as much as an orange! It is rich in carotenoids and catechins, which are useful in releasing fat from cells and help the liver turn fat into energy. You can enjoy black sapote directly from the fruit, or blend it into a smoothie, or even make a pie or dessert.
